Summary
One million Americans live with Parkinson's disease, a progressive condition that causes problems with body movement. New research has identified a genetic variant that increases the risk of Parkinson's in people of African descent, and it is not seen in those with European ancestry. Ekemini Riley, managing director of Aligning Science Across Parkinson's, joins John Yang to discuss the findings.
