In this episode we discuss the genetic connection to Parkinson’s. It doesn’t matter if you know you have a genetic mutual, if you know you don’t have one or you don’t know and don’t want to know, you will learn a lot about how the research into the genetic mutations linked to PD is leading to science better understanding of the origins of the disease and eventually a cure. We talk to a leading researcher at NYU about the connection. Also, we hear from a family who has a deep connection to the LRRK2 mutation and what that has meant to them. Thank you to my sponsor, Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise, a directional system Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS device. Boston Scientific is dedicated to transforming lives through meaningful innovation.
