Rallying to the Challenge 2024 - Day 2
Professor Roger Barker, Cambridge University

Professor Roger Barker of Cambridge University gives an overview of what cell replacement therapy for Parkinson's is, how cell replacement therapy works, the challenges associated with these therapies, and why this treatment is of interest for Parkinson's. Professor Barker is one of the Principal Investigators for the TransEuro study and for the ongoing STEM-PD trial, a cell replacement trial taking place in Sweden and the UK.

This talk was given as a part of the Rallying to the Challenge meeting, hosted by Cure Parkinson's and the Van Andel Institute in Grand Rapids, Michigan on September 23-24, 2024. Rallying to the Challenge is a meeting designed for and by people with Parkinson’s, advocates, and care partners to explore how the Parkinson’s community can impact and accelerate research. It is a part of the larger Grand Challenges in Parkinson's Disease meeting, an annual scientific symposium for Parkinson's research.
