Welcome to the blog for the PREDICT-PD project. We are working to understand the risk factors for Parkinson's Disease and blogging about advances made in prediction and early detection of the disease.
Great talk - I especially liked the neuroprotection slide showing the reduced slope. Our lab is playing with the idea of dance helping people with PD. See www.joeLAB.com. or http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.01478/abstract
Have you done any data collection on PD patients and whether they could ever dance in their lives? It could be possible that inability to coordinate in dance might possibly be an indicator for PD candidates.
Think for instance of the Seinfeld episode where Eileen cannot dance ..
Is there a link to your presentation? While the slides are useful, and I thank you for that, I'm sure that your presentation adds considerable value.
