With all the latest treatments and research being done in the world, they still have no idea what the cause of PD or other distinct motor neuron diseases or what bodily systems are affected. While I feel that these new treatments and research should continue, I also feel there should be more research being done to find out what exactly causes the diseases.
Someone needs to go back to the very beginning. Back to basic biology and find out exactly how, in our case, PD starts. What causes PD to develop.
I know in this day and age where we see miracles in science everyday this is not a popular idea but as shown in Paula's article, and indigogo said, "We have based treatment on assumptions that are turning out to be wrong." It is time to get serious about finding treatments that work or god forbid,,, even a cure.
