Parkinson's Disease Study from The Michael J. Fox Foundation

MIAMI - Nov. 6, 2018 - EntSun -- A new online Parkinson's disease study is available from The Michael J. Fox Foundation by Fox Insight. Fox Insight is an online clinical study where people with Parkinson's disease and their loved ones share information that could transform the search for better treatments. By joining Fox Insight you can help shape the future of Parkinson's research — but it's going to take all of us, working together.

No one understands Parkinson's better than those living with it every day. By working together, we can help shape the future of research. Fox Insight easily collects self-reported data about health experiences from those with and without Parkinson's in a number of ways. Eligible individuals can help researchers gain a holistic picture of the disease by participating in a genetic sub-study.
