Most people with Parkinson's don't know what caused it. There are likely to be both genetic and environmental factors.
There's a huge amount of data that's available at this and other sites that needs mining, which might lead us to a better understanding of the disease's aetiology.
I would like to hear from anyone who is interested in forming a loose-knit group to use open data to help find the cause of Parkinson's Disease.
