List members, My friends at Duke University Med. Ctr. have asked me to forward the following announcment to anybody who's interested. Rees Jenkins The Motion Disorders Clinic at Duke University Medical Center has a new research study available for folks who have early Parkinson's disease (actually diagnosed less than 5 years could have had symptoms before that but when they got the actual diagnosis). To be eligible for this study one should not have taken Sinemet for more than 6 months. (They are eligible if they have never started Sinemet either.) It is called Rotigotine and it is a patch. There is info about another previous study on the Internet that you can see by clicking http://www.pslgroup.com/dg/202aae.htm Please feel free to have folks email me or call me at 919/668-2841. Thanks! Carroll Beth Wilcox, R.N. Clinical Research Nurse ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
