The post this is oncue, a modular keyboard with wearable haptic cuffs for people with parkinson’s appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
Neighborhoods near golf courses are often considered desirable locations, blending nature, leisure and nice views. However, a new study suggests that houses within a few miles of manicured fairways and greens may not be such hot property after all. There's more research that the upkeep of these green spaces poses a significant neurological health risk.Continue ReadingCategory: Society & Commu
In a new study, researchers have identified a way to stop cells from dying, opening the door to developing treatments that slow the progression of neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson’s disease.Continue ReadingCategory: Brain Health, Body & MindTags: Apoptosis, Cells, Neurodegenerative conditions, Parkinson's Disease, Walter and Eliza Hall Institute
Researchers have developed a simple, non-invasive method of diagnosing Parkinson’s disease early using an eye scan. It could mean treatment aimed at slowing the disease can start sooner or, alternatively, could be used to monitor the disease’s progression.Continue ReadingCategory: Brain Health, Body & MindTags: Parkinson's Disease, Retina, Diagnosis, Universite Laval
Despite being a mainstay of Parkinson's disease treatment, levodopa, a dopamine-replenishing medication, can cause nasty side-effects with long-term use. A recent human trial found that a new drug significantly reduces these effects, representing a breakthrough milestone in Parkinson’s treatment.Continue ReadingCategory: Illnesses and conditions, Body & MindTags: Parkinson's Disease, cli
Scientists have finally pinned down a protein that’s largely responsible for Parkinson’s disease. Known as PINK1, the protein has been linked to the disease for decades but its structure and how to switch it back on have remained elusive – until now.Continue ReadingCategory: Body & MindTags: Parkinson's Disease, Neuroscience, Protein, Walter and Eliza Hall Institute, Cells, Brain
Americans will soon have access to an infusion device that provides round-the-clock effective relief of Parkinson's disease. The US FDA this week approved the sale of the treatment, which harnesses innovative technology to make managing the condition easier and more impactful, will be available towards the end of 2025.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical Devices, Medical Innovations, Body & Mind
The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research has partnered with Grifols, a global healthcare company, to identify biomarkers of Parkinson’s disease well in advance of symptoms appearing. The initiative could lead to new diagnostic tools and ways of slowing or stopping the condition’s progression.Continue ReadingCategory: Illnesses and conditions, Body & MindTags: Parkinson's Di
Spanning nearly 100 laboratories in 45 countries, landmark research has, for the first time, shown an association between genetic brain size and neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). And while it doesn't prove causation, it's a big step forward in being able to assess risk factors and provide early intervention.Continue ReadingCat
Although brain-implanted electrodes do help minimize the effects of Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders, implanting and activating those electrodes can be a tricky process. That's why scientists are now developing an alternative, in the form of tiny injectable magnetic discs.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical Devices, Medical Innovations, Body & MindTags: MIT, Deep Brain Stimu
