EP 13 - Article Of The Week: Shades Of Grey: The Continuum Of Therapies For Parkinson's Disease Along The Spectrum Of Credibility
🎙️ We’re back with the thirteenth episode of Parkinson Weekly, hosted by Prof. Bas Bloem.
In this week’s episode, Bas explores the powerful intersection between art and Parkinson’s disease — how creativity, expression, and the artistic process can offer unique insights into living with the condition. From movement and emotion to identity and resilience, Bas reflects on the ways art can illuminate aspects of Parkinson’s that clinical measures often overlook.
The article of the week, “Shades of grey: The continuum of therapies for Parkinson’s disease along the spectrum of credibility” dives into the nuanced landscape of Parkinson’s treatments. Bas discusses how different therapeutic approaches — from well-established evidence-based interventions to emerging and unconventional options — fit along a continuum, and why understanding this spectrum is essential for both clinicians and people with Parkinson’s.
