The Parkinson’s Disease Pandemic is man-made, and these are the current efforts to end it.
In this episode of Bite the Orange, Manny is glad to interview Ray Dorsey about Parkinson’s disease, how to improve its treatment, and how to mitigate its extent, based on his work as a professor of neurology and director of the Center for Health and Technology at the University of Rochester Medical Center. Parkinson's is the world's fastest-growing brain disease, and its increasing worldwide reach over the last 200 years is directly linked to air pollution, certain pesticides like Paraquat, and industrial chemicals. Ray also shares how he has been a strong advocate for telemedicine for over a decade and believes that, combined with smart remote patient monitoring devices, more Parkinson’s patients could receive better care wherever they may be.
