EP 12 – Will clinical study assessments stand the test of time?
🎙️ We’re back with the twelfth episode of Parkinson Weekly, hosted by Prof. Bas Bloem.
In this week’s episode, Bas examines whether today’s clinical study assessments are truly prepared for the future of Parkinson’s research and care. With rapid advances in technology, emerging biomarkers, and new digital tools, long-established rating scales and outcome measures are increasingly being questioned.
Do they genuinely reflect what matters most to people living with Parkinson’s? And how might clinical studies adapt to capture the full complexity of the condition?
