Healthy ageing and prevention

The DECODE-PD goes beyond great research towards PD treatment, and hopefully, a cure. We also focus our attention to prevention.

Strong evidence has shown that prevention plays a big role on the development of Parkinson’s disease. Being able to treat and control a disease is always a big step forward, but halting or preventing it from happening is even better!

For the studies below, our aim is to recruit those individuals that do not have a Parkinson’s disease diagnosis.

NADage study

The study aims to investigate the potential of nicotinamide riboside (NR) in improving clinical symptoms of frailty in the elderly frail population.

RBD study

REM-sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) is a sleep disorder known as a prodromal stage for major neurodegenerative diseases, such as PD.
