This month, we will turn our attention to cognition in people with Parkinson's disease. In this introduction episode, I talk about the clinical diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment of Parkinson's disease and what this actually means. I discuss how this condition may progress throughout the course of the illness. I discuss Dementia of Parkinson's disease and the prevalence rate of this condition.

This month, we will focus on the neuropathology of cognitive changes of Parkinson's disease and focus on treatments for various problems related to cognition. We will also discuss in future episodes the research pipeline on novel therapeutics in clinical trials that may improve cognitive performance.
