A brilliant scientist, great communicator, and such a down to earth all round nice person. I do hope he finally pulls this off and gets an invitation to Stockholm in due course…!
I've finally had time to listen to this episode, sat in the garden with a large mug of tea . How very exciting this cell therapy is, I really hope it becomes an option as soon as possible.
I am one of Roger's patients; he is a remarkable man. His energy, belief and pragmatism allowed me to accept my diagnosis in a way I don't think another neurologist could've done. He's patient with my never ending questions and is available if you need him. I feel very grateful!
The BlueRock Therapeutics trial recently revealed motor symptoms improved for 11 of 12 participants as well as demonstrating safety. Fingers crossed for other trials - I think we may finally be on to a significant new therapy…
Very interesting. Unfortunately these type of trials do take a long time but all in the name verified results. Yamanaka's efforts may not go to waste, particularly for Parkies in the long term.
It’s so disappointing to keep learning that there doesn’t seem to be anything for the older sufferers of Parkinson’s. It’s pleasing to know that the future looks a little brighter, I keep my fingers crossed that there is something round the corner for the younger and yet to be diagnosed.
Roger barker is an inspiration, a really dedicated doctor.
