Researchers are working to create a computer model that will be able to accurately predict how a PD patient's condition will develop over time.
Scientists at the Uniqversity of Sheffield are part of a major European project which could revolutionise treatment for Parkinson's sufferers. One of the biggest challenges for treating Parkinson's is the unpredictable nature of the condition as it affects everyone differentlyqq and progresses in individuals in different ways. The scientists will make models personalised to each patient using their specific clinical data enabling prediction of disease progress on an individual basis. By using these unique models, along with existing data sets, they aim to develop new clinical tools for use by both Parkinson's healthcare professionals, and by pharmaceutical companies for the development of new drugs. http://phys.org/wire-news/153152903/...gh.html#ajTabs Last edited by Tupelo3; 02-06-2014 at 08:31 PM. |
