Brief Summary

This study plans to analyze the molecular and clinical mechanisms of the relationship between the GBA mutations and Parkinson's disease. This will be assessed through the use of advanced neuroimaging ...

Detailed Description

Study Rationale: People who have a mutation in the GBA gene have a higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD) and, if they have PD, are more likely to have cognitive decline and dementia. Cogn...
