Support our fight against Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders.
The Udall Center of Excellence for Parkinson’s Disease Research is working to help families and patients understand and cope with the challenges associated with Parkinson’s disease.
Your gift strengthens our work by providing U-M researchers with the freedom, resources and collaborative environment to produce breakthroughs in understanding the genetic causes of Parkinson’s and other movement disorders, as well as develop new treatment therapies. Your generosity allows our neurologists and neuroscientists to pursue new ideas that push the limits of current knowledge and expand our ability to treat and cure.
