Today we celebrate #WorldParkinsonsDay and the focus it brings to this challenging disease. Parkinson's Europe estimates it affects 10 million people globally and as the fastest-growing neurological condition that number is expected to double in the next 25 years, affecting people of all races and cultures, mostly over 60 years of age, but one in ten are under 50. Many biopharma companies are working on symptom remediation and ultimately a cure but to date no disease-modifying therapies are available.  Modality has published extensively on our research and collaboration including a five years long study with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. https://lnkd.in/gnrCUKmg https://lnkd.in/g3G_J94W https://lnkd.in/g9J-ZC7g #parkinsonsdisease #pd #clinicaltrials

I absolutely love being able to work across teams to produce small bits of content like this. Not only does this video showcase a pioneering woman researcher but it was also created entirely by women. #IWD #IWD2024 #InternationalWomensDay #Content #ContentCreation #SocialMedia #Research #WomenInScience #VersusArthritis #Teamwork

”Empowering Lives, Embracing Progress: Equitable and Accessible Thalassaemia Treatment for All.” On this Thalassemia Day, let's come together to shed a light on this often overlooked genetic disorder. Thalassemia is an inherited blood condition that affects the body's ability to produce healthy red blood cells. While it may not be as widely known as other medical challenges, its impact on individuals and families can be profound. This 8th of May, join us in building understanding and breaking down the stigma surrounding Thalassemia. With increased awareness and access to proper care, we can empower those affected to live fuller, healthier lives. Together, we can make a difference. Let's spread the word, support research, and ensure that no one has to face the struggles of Thalassemia alone. #ThalassemiaDay #ThalassemiaDayTheme # #MedicalEducation #CareforAll
