First seen Mar 22, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study aims to understand how abnormal clumps of a protein called alpha-synuclein spread in the brain and cause damage in Parkinson's disease. Researchers will use brain scans, blood tests, and thinking assessments in 160 people, including those with Parkinson's, those with a sleep disorder linked to the disease, and healthy volunteers. The goal is to create a computer model of the brain to better predict how the disease progresses and to identify new targets for treatment.
