What's the big idea? Citizen science.
This site aims to help people with Parkinson's (PwP):
- by writing free apps to better measure and better manage their symptoms;
- by collecting and analysing huge amounts of objective data about the relationship between Parkinson's Disease and foods, supplements, drugs, exercise, lifestyle and the environment.
We plan to do this by combining:
- the skills, experiences and efforts of PwP;
- computer based symptom measurement;
- internet based data entry.
PwP EXPERIENCE + INTERNET + ONLINE TESTS → DATA
PWP SKILLS, TIME, COMPUTERS → ANALYSIS
DATA + ANALYSIS → PROGRESS
