On Saturday, 21 May 2016, the NCER-PD Clinical Team travelled to Trier in Germany where the patient organisation “Jung und Parkinson” hosted their yearly “Movie Day” in a local cinema.
We are inviting all the participants of the NCER-PD programme, together with their families, to our summer party.
The medical historical exhibition explains the milestones of Parkinson's disease research since the first description of the disease in 1817 by James Parkinson.
Each year, we celebrate in the month of April the birthday of James Parkinson, who first described the disease in 1817 as characteristics of Parkinson’s.
In order to answer the urgent questions surrounding the occurrence of Parkinson’s disease, researchers need to analyse clinical data and samples from hundreds of patients and healthy control persons.
