Participate in Research

You can help to push Parkinson’s research forward.

How? Become involved with clinical research and clinical research advocacy. Clinical research studies help to answer specific questions about potential new treatments by studying their effects in people. It is only through clinical studies that Parkinson's treatments and medications are made available. 

PDF is working to improve the clinical research system, increase awareness of clinical trials, and most importantly, ensure that people with PD are a part of the process.
