SINCE LOCKDOWN the
Cambridge Branch of Parkinson's has held fortnightly Zoom Cuppa and Cake
Meetings, frequently with guest speakers.
The 23 April 21 meeting saw the Branch's Honorary President,
Professor Barker address the members and guests.
Roger is the Professor of Clinical Neuroscience and
Honorary Consultant in Neurology at the University of Cambridge and at Addenbrooke’s Hospital. He trained at Oxford and London and
undertook his clinical and research training in Cambridge as well as the
National Hospital for Neurology in London. His research looks at
neurodegenerative disorders of the nervous system in particular Parkinson’s
disease and Huntington’s disease. He combines basic research looking at novel
therapies (including cell transplants and gene therapies) to treat these
conditions with clinically based work on defining the natural history and
heterogeneity of both Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. He is the
co-ordinator of the FP7 Transeuro project looking at fetal cell grafting in patients with early PD and a
founding member of the GFORCE=PD stem cell initiative.
