Abstract

Recent years have seen an explosion in the rate of discovery of genetic defects linked to Parkinson's disease. These breakthroughs have not provided a direct explanation for the disease process. Nevertheless, they have helped transform Parkinson's disease research by providing tangible clues to the neurobiology of the disorder.
