The Foundation is financing the research work of the CbgMotDisorders project, which aims to characterise Parkinson’s neuronal electrical ripples in the different parts of the brain involved in motor skills in primates. The aim is to link them to the motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease in order to propose new therapies to restore movement.
