AAIC 2017 | Clearing up: approaches to treat Parkinson’s disease

A major factor towards the development of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the inability of certain organelles to clear misfolded proteins, making this process a particularly desirable target for new treatments.

This interview was recorded at the 2017 Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) held in London, UK.
