Brave new world? "#Parkinsons & dementia with Lewy bodies are currently defined by their clinical features", but now researchers propose a biological definition of neuronal α-synuclein disease, pushing us "towards an integrated staging system for research"

@morethanatremor I need a print of this, it's absolutely beautiful.

In health & care, we often focus on a narrow concept of improving "staff experience", when we could be building a much deeper & more profound basis of human connection at work: a sense of belonging. Belonging is when an employee, regardless of their background or role, knows that their voice matters, that their unique experiences enrich the team & that they're not just seen, but understood. Organisations that build a sense of belonging have higher levels of engagement, retention & performance: https://t.co/DNGs6moS0B By @hacking_hr

"Mitochondria – vital energy producers within brain cells, undergo damage. This initiates & spreads the disease like a wildfire through the brain." Prof Shohreh Issazadeh-Navikas Researchers have made a breakthrough on how #Parkinsons spreads in the brain

3 in 10 people with Parkinson’s have Parkinson’s related dementia at any one time.

Help us make the UK government sit up and take notice to ensure all health professionals in England receive dedicated Parkinson’s-related Dementia training.

Please get involved, the more we know, the more connected we can be. Happy #ParkinsonsAwarenessMonth

[Parkinson's Europe 🌷 @ParkinsonsEU]

Today is #WorldParkinsonsDay 🌷

Did you know, despite being commemorated since 1997, World Parkinson's Day isn't currently recognised as an official global health day?

We'd like to change that - here's why, and how you can help
