9^th January 2019: Dr Kevin McFarthing

At our January 2019 meeting, Kevin - who is our Branch committee member tasked with keeping us up to date with research news - presented his survey of new therapies that have made it out of the research laboratory and are now in development or trial by pharmaceutical companies.

A little further down this page you can see a 44-minute video of the presentation slides, as they were shown on the screen, and Kevin's talk along with the question-and-answer session that followed it. Alternatively you can see it on Vimeo at this link.

You can also download the presentation as a PDF document (6MB) using this link. At the end of the document you will find additional slides describing therapies that the talk mentioned but did not explore in detail.

While we're thinking about prospects for 2019, you might also like to look at a recent Science of Parkinson's blog post, excellent as always, on the same topic: scienceofparkinsons.com/2019/01/10/2019
