Targeting the Causes of Parkinson's
Rutgers Experts Bring Hope to Finding a Cure
At the Rutgers American Parkinson Disease Association Center for Advanced Research—one of only nine such centers—we don’t just seek to treat the symptoms of Parkinson’s but to cure it. By focusing on approaches to stop a chief culprit in the disease—the α-synuclein protein—from accumulating in the brain, there is hope for eradicating Parkinson’s.
