About the study

Volunteers are needed for a new study being conducted by University of South Australia researchers who are exploring the relationship between a brain scan marker of Parkinson’s disease and body function.

The study involves questionnaires and non-invasive, safe, and painless tests of body function. All participants will be asked to complete an online questionnaire and an appointment at the University of South Australia (approximately 2-2.5 hrs in duration). Some participants will be asked to also complete a neurological examination (30 mins) at Neurology SA (Blackwood) on a different day.

The hope is the information gathered can assist in earlier and more accurate diagnosis of the disease. Hit the link below for all the details.
