Today, on #WorldParkinsonsDay, we’re proud to share insights from the Predict-PD study — helping to identify Parkinson’s risk earlier than ever before. Early detection is key to changing the future of Parkinson’s.

Alastair Noyce is a Professor in Neurology and Neuroepidemiology at the Centre for Preventive Neurology (CPN). With our support, the team was established in 2017 and works on revolutionary research into Parkinson's disease, dementia and MS. Alastair's focus is on preventions, treatments, and early detection of Parkinson’s disease. He has also led pioneering work into the connection between laughing gas abuse and spinal cord damage.

Did you know that over 13,000 people in London are currently living with Parkinson's? And because symptoms are often hard to spot at first, lots of people go years without getting a diagnosis. With our support, Professors at @Preventiveneur1 are working tirelessly to improve preventions, treatments and early detection of Parkinson’s disease. Their studies will help people from all backgrounds in East London to get the support they need, when they need it. @predictPD Read more about the team's incredible work: bit.ly/44exItg (Figures cited by @ParkinsonsUK) #Parkinsons #PD #WorldParkinsonsDay #research
