To cure Parkinson’s disease new drugs and diagnostics are needed. We look at a global view of gene activity in human Parkinson’s disease to discover disease genes, drug targets, and molecular biomarkers. We integrate large scale clinical studies with genome-wide expression analysis and genetic validation in Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
