Parkinson’s resources for International Clinical Trials Day

May 20th is International Clinical Trials Day, a chance to celebrate how clinical trials improve our health and to learn more about the process of participating in trials. In recognition of this day, we’ve gathered a list of Parkinson’s-specific info so you know what is happening in Parkinson’s clinical trials and how to get involved. 

• Overview of the Parkinson’s Clinical Trial Pipeline
