UF neurologists create a new image of Parkinson disease

July 27, 2020

New, more diverse image better represents who is affected by Parkinson disease, and how.

New Parkinson's representation showing a young, healthy woman with only a few symptoms; a man who is a little older with more symptoms (illustrating his “on” time, when medications are successfully treating symptoms, and “off” time when they aren’t); and an older man with more pronounced and advanced symptoms of the disease.
