MultiPark is a translational programme that ranges from pre-clinical research to studies on the life situation of patients with Parkinson's disease. Our programme not only aims at improving the patients' body function but also their activity and participation. This initiative relies on solid interactions between Lund University and Lund University Hospital with support from the University of Gothenburg.
Our researchers want to find new treatments and achieve results that can be used in society. Several drugs are currently available to treat Parkinson´s disease, but their effects often diminish with time. Hence, new treatments are needed to slow, or stop, the course of the disease.
The MultiPark research environment at Lund University possesses the ideas to tackle Parkinson’s through different strategies – simultaneously. The breadth of research talent at hand allows us to map disease development in Parkinson’s disease, understand how it progresses on a cellular level, how it relates to the nervous system and finally how it affects the patient's everyday life.
