Check out the research of Dr. Robert E. Burke, Director of Research Laboratories, Columbia University. He is also on the Scientific Board of PDF, MJFF and Parkinson's Unity Walk. He is researching axon regrowth in dopamine neurons. Perhaps cell death is not as high at diagnosis as is currently believed. He and Dr. J. William Langston have a youtube talk on the Current State of PD Research. It is worth listening to.


Welcome aboard! I know of Dr. Langston; he always seems on the cutting edge of theory; I just wish research could match his pace. Have not heard of the other guy but sounds promising. I will check that out.

Sounds like you are in a good spot in living with this; I am still trying to get there.
