Our 2026 Autumn Research Update Meeting will once again be held at 1 Wimpole Street, W1G 0AE, London on Monday 19 October, where attendees can look forward to an engaging agenda featuring the latest updates from Parkinson’s research. Our next meeting will discuss neurotrophic factors, a group of proteins that help with the growth, survival, and development of nerve cells.
