You could take any two humans on earth and their genetic code will be roughly 99 percent the same — it’s the small differences in code that lead to different experiences and outcomes, including the risk of developing diseases like Parkinson’s.

Tune into this episode of our award-winning “Parkinson’s Science POV” series to learn how researchers are using genetics to better understand the disease and work toward better treatments for all.
