Welcome to the Penn Udall Center
On behalf of our Penn Udall Center Team, welcome to the Penn Udall Center for Parkinson’s Research website. Parkinson’s disease is not a new avenue of research here at Penn. |

The Penn Udall Center investigators work in a seamlessly interdisciplinary manner, as well as collaborate with other Udall Centers. Thus, the Penn Udall Center team contributes to improving the diagnosis and management of patients with PD, PDD, DLB, and related disorders. For many years, our dedicated group of researchers and clinicians have been on the frontlines treating patients or in the lab exploring the basic science behind this devastating disease. Explore our website to learn more about findings from the lab, creative philanthropy efforts to support Parkinson's research, and news from our Udall team and partners at Penn. |
