The Brain4ward Foundation is a 100% non-profit foundation founded to sponsor specialized research, into the earliest possible diagnosis of Parkinson, (atypical) Parkinsonism’s and other related or similar neurodegenerative diseases that ultimately will lead to serious cognitive and movement disorders.
Most of the current research is focused on the treatment of symptoms through medication and although medication is important, the Brain4ward Foundation is going to exclusively sponsor research that is focused on early diagnosis and prevention.
As long as the exact causes of most of these neurodegenerative diseases are still largely unknown, it is even more important to be able to research and track the early symptoms in future patients. In most cases, these symptoms are a precursor to the more severe phases of these neurodegenerative diseases and therefore earlier treatments might slow down the progression and improve the lives of future patients.
