Nom\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nProf. Dr. Patrick Cras<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nJob\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nProfessor of Neurology – Head of Service<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nDepartment Chair of Neurology<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nNeurology Department , UZ AntwerpenWhat’s your background?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
I am a neurologist at the University of Antwerp.
What research are you doing in the field of Parkinson’s disease?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Research into early non-motoric symptoms.
Where are you doing this research?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
In the University Hospital of Antwerp, but in collaboration with a large number of colleagues in other hospitals.
What has driven you to do research on Parkinson’s disease?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
To better understand how Parkinson’s disease originates and evolves in order to enable early diagnosis and treatment.
What are the latest research breakthroughs in the Parkinson’s domain?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Genetics has taught us a lot about the risk of developing the disease, its course and the effect of treatment.
When do you think there will be a solution to Parkinson’s disease?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Curing the disease will still take a long time, but day after day we obtain better results in improving the efficiency of the treatment.
You also participate to Run for Parkinson and you are a supporter of the Demoucelle Parkinson Charity, what motivates you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
I believe that exercise is one of the pillars of a successful treatment, so every step in the 20km of Brussels is a step in the right direction.
What is your favorite quote?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
