Progress in Parkinson Research

More about the book

Significant advancements in understanding Parkinson's disease have emerged over the past five years, particularly regarding the effects of MPTP and the potential for transplantation therapies. In January 1988, a research meeting organized by the National Parkinson Foundation in Key Biscayne, Florida, aimed to foster collaboration among scientists in the field. The published proceedings document current findings, focusing on clinical and neuropathological insights, particularly concerning dopaminergic neurons and the biology of dopamine receptors.
