This looks really exciting. One to watch. If it yields high quality results, the spin-off for all kinds of interventions that target FoG would be huge.

Thrilled to have the eponymous Richard Wade-Martins Lab telling us the story of IPSCs and what researchers can do with them. Truly a cabinet of marvels: eye-watering science from molecules to cells to brains to therapies, and surely best hope for a cure for #Parkinsons

Ooh. Even non-scientific us can see that this is (a) cool, (b) potentially important for mouse-model researchers in the Parkinson's space we care about.

Honoured to welcome Alison Rooke, chair of Oxfordshire County Council, to our meeting last night - sorry, no photo as yours truly was a bit busy with AV stuff - really appreciate the show of support, and all you're doing for Parkinson's UK in your year as chair. Thank you!

As supporter of a PwP who experiences infrequent, debilitating FoG, and as an enthusiast for the potential of health tech, I find it hard to express how exciting this is. I'm sure gaitQ Charco Rory Cellan-Jones all know about this; would love to hear any thoughts.

Rather exciting day for us. Panel discussion with Rory Cellan-Jones at our meeting this evening - if you're a Branch member you already have an invitation. We can handle a few visitors either in person or on Zoom - DM for info - and a video recording will be available in a few days.

Really looking forward to this. We have lined up some great questions from our members for you to get your teeth into!

We were thrilled to welcome Rory Cellan-Jones at our Branch meeting last week. As you might expect, the discussion was entertaining, thought-provoking, optimistic, mischievous and inspiring. Video recording (47:30) at oxfordparkinsons.org.uk/archive/mtg202… Sophie from Romania got a mention or two...

Chatting with Paul Mayhew-Archer about how easy it is to skip or ignore medication alerts set on your phone, had an IDEA: Ask each of moversandshakerspod to record 2 or 3 barked commands like TAKE YER MEDS that could be used as alarm ringtones. First offering on moversandshakerspod merch shop!!!

Just back from a consultation with S's #Parkinson's specialist nurse, and reminded of how valuable that service is and how important it is to make it readily available to all (we're lucky here, with excellent provision). Professional, friendly, fun, useful. Parkinson's Excellence Network

HUGE day tomorrow as new series of moversandshakerspod is launched along with our first pop video!

With the emphasis on MOVERS. Just look at 'em GO!
