If you ever feel too small to make a difference, think of a dopamine-producing neuron in the substantia nigra. 🧠

On , discover why these extraordinary neurons matter so much in Parkinson’s disease.

What if one of the missing pieces in Parkinson’s research isn’t another study,
but the real-world data we are not yet collecting?

We are building an ambitious global Parkinson’s registry designed to collect anonymized real-world insights from people living with Parkinson’s: symptoms, lifestyle factors, environmental exposures, treatment responses, lived experiences, and more.

Why does this matter?

Because better data can lead to better insights.
Better insights can lead to better treatments.
And one day, hopefully, a cure.

🧩 We believe there are still missing pieces in the Parkinson’s puzzle – and finding them will take a global community.

That’s why we are looking for a 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗔𝗺𝗯𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗿 to help us build and grow our presence on Facebook, and potentially support the creation of a future Facebook Group.

This role could be a great fit for someone who:

✅ Lives with Parkinson’s, or has lived experience as a caregiver
✅ Is a healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, or Parkinson’s expert
✅ Believes in the power of data, collaboration, and community
✅ Has experience with Facebook and online communities
✅ Wants to contribute to something bigger than themselves

This is a volunteer role, but also a unique opportunity to help shape a global movement around Parkinson’s research, real-world data, and hope.

Together, we can help researchers connect the dots, find better treatments for today, and move closer to a cure for tomorrow.

🩸 Platelets are primarily known for their essential role in blood clotting.

However, growing evidence suggests they may also be 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗼𝗻’𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 through mechanisms linked to inflammation, vascular function, and neurodegeneration.

In this post, we explore the role of platelets in Parkinson’s disease and discuss a recent finding reporting an association between the anti-platelet medication clopidogrel and PD. 🧠

🎙️PODCAST

Can patient knowledge help change the future of Parkinson’s?

Marco Hamburger — YOPD and initiator of Kill Parkinson — joined the podcast "Jetzt erst recht – Positiv leben mit Parkinson" to talk about our initiative: building a global, independent Parkinson’s patient registry driven by the people who live with the disease every day.

In this conversation, Marco shares:

🧠 Why patient experiences matter for research
🌍 The vision behind Kill Parkinson
📊 How real-world data could support prevention, better treatments and future breakthroughs
💬 And why the Parkinson’s community itself may hold part of the answers

The podcast is in German 🇩🇪
The YouTube version includes English subtitles 🇬🇧

Parkinson’s disease is progressive – but progression does not look the same for everyone.

A person diagnosed at 45 may experience a very different disease trajectory than someone diagnosed at 70.
In this post, we explore two longitudinal studies following the real-world progression of early-onset and late-onset Parkinson’s over time 🧠

The comparison highlights an important reality:
same diagnosis, different challenges, and different clinical needs.

Understanding these differences is essential to improving care, treatment strategies, and quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s.

Am Sonntag gibt es eine neue Podcast-Folge mit einem sehr spannenden Gast. Marco Hamburger und sein Team stehen hinter dem Projekt „Kill Parkinson“, mit dem Ziel, ein weltweites unabhängiges Register zur Datensammlung von Menschen mit Parkinson aufzubauen, um es zur Grundlagenforschung und Prävention nutzbar zu machen.
Am Sonntag wird die Folge über dort zu hören sein, wo es Podcasts gibt! 🎙️

Sudden off phases can be unpredictable and difficult to manage.
They can interrupt daily life without warning – and everyone experiences them differently.

How do you deal with them?

📣 𝗪𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗥 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁

We’re building something that has the potential to change how Parkinson’s is understood, researched, and ultimately treated.
At the core is our 𝗴𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆 – designed to accelerate insights, connect patterns, and move us closer to real breakthroughs.

Now we’re at a point where the mission needs to travel further.

We’re looking for 𝗣𝗥 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 to help bring this work into the world. Thoughtfully, strategically, and with the reach it deserves.

If this speaks to you, or if you know someone who knows someone:
