Parkinson's disease. Second of two parts.
At no time in the past have the basic and clinical sciences applied to Parkinson's disease been so active. Experimental therapies under study at present promise to improve on the limitations of existing treatments. Future progress in understanding the causation and pathogenesis of the disorder will permit the development of new treatments that will slow, halt, or even reverse the currently inexorable progressive course of Parkinson's disease.
