Researchers explore the cerebellar manifestations that set apart Parkinson’s disease brains from healthy brains

Caption

Latest research supports cerebellar involvement in the Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathophysiology, unlike traditional research that focused on the degradation of dopaminergic neurons only in the substantia nigra within the brain. Such findings may be significant for improved PD diagnoses and monitoring.
