Research: The Role of Inflammation in Parkinson’s Disease and Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders
As life expectancy increases and more people are affected by neurodegenerative diseases, so does the importance of optimal diagnostics.

Piotr Alster, PhD hab. from the WUM Department of Neurology at the Faculty of Health Sciences conducts research, which will allow for comparing the levels of inflammation parameters in the course of Parkinson’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy, as well as identifying differences between those subtypes.
