The National Parkinson's Project
This plan paves the way to significantly boost federal research funding, create more effective pathways for treatments and cures, enhance early diagnosis, initiate new and improved models for patient care, and tackle health disparities in diagnosis, treatment, and participation in clinical trials.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will now establish an advisory council and the National Parkinson’s Project, a first-ever federal initiative to prevent and cure Parkinson’s disease, treat its symptoms and slow or stop its progression.
