Parkinson’s disease patient-focused research study | Fox Insight

When it comes to better understanding Parkinson's, you can help us put the pieces together. The Michael J. Fox Foundation launched Fox Insight to create a true partnership between people with Parkinson's disease and researchers. This online clinical study aims to learn more about life with Parkinson's and accelerate breakthroughs by capturing the experiences of people with and without the disease. Through a collaboration with consumer genetics company 23andMe, Fox Insight participants with Parkinson's can access the 23andMe Health + Ancestry Service at no cost. Adding genetic information to the study can provide scientists with a more holistic understanding of the disease. Fox Insight is just getting started. The study aims to recruit hundreds of thousands of people to contribute data. The more people who take part, the faster Fox Insight could lead to new targets for potential therapies.   If you're already enrolled in Fox Insight, we thank you for sharing your experiences and helping to shape the future of Parkinson's research.
