Research Notes on Parkinson's Disease
Although some forms are genetic, the causes for most forms of this disease are unknown. Parkinsonism may also be present in persons with other neurological conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Well-known actor Michael J. Fox was diagnosed with the disease in 1991 and has been a tireless campaigner for research towards a cure.
