The Senate just passed my National Plan to End Parkinson’s Act! This is the first-ever legislation solely devoted to ending Parkinson’s disease.   Parkinson’s disease is the second most common neurological disease globally and I’ve heard many stories from WVians who have felt its impact. Once law, this will help move us towards new treatments and finally finding a cure. More details here ⬇️ capito.senate.gov/news/press…

Ultrasound #neuromodulation holds great promise for individuals struggling with mental health. At @WVURNI we are bringing together engineers, neuroscientists, behavioral health specialists in close partnership w/ academia, gov’t, philanthropy, and industry washingtonpost.com/health/20…

Ultrasound technology is used in many ways. Addiction is the next frontier.

The use of the high-frequency sound waves is also being adapted to treat Alzheimer’s disease, tumors and psychiatric disorders.
