The Edinburgh Parkinson’s Research Group (ERIG) has invited all the Scottish RIGs to an online talk by Prof. Miratul Muqit from the University of Dundee. The event will start at 10:30 on Saturday 22nd January 2022.
Prof. Muqit will be introduced by Brendan Hawdon from DRIG.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) manifests itself in many different forms. In fact, there appears to be an unlimited amount of new ’variants’ as the predicted Parkinson’s pandemic takes grip. Despite our individual experiences and effects of Parkinson’s on our lives, we still, more than ever, need to remain in constant dialogue with each other. By thinking globally and acting locally, sharing successes and setbacks, we strengthen our collective bond, to raise our voices and build an unstoppable momentum towards defeating Parkinson’s.
The Road towards Optimal Treatment
Introduction
The two previous events have focused mainly on ways to give the patient more control and influence over symptoms and their effects. In both cases, continuous and objective measurement is the basis for action.

Introduction
Parkinson's is a disease with many faces: each patient develops individual symptoms and a unique
course of the disease. What they have in common is the impediment to daily life. Fundamental issues
for some PwP may not occur for others or will have been solved.
