Dear Virginia, Thank you for the warm welcome. Whereas I wil be delighted to discuss bradyphrenia and amotivational syndrome and learn from others, I think that discussing research on a list could potentially be harmful. After all our work is still investigational and it would be irresponsible on our part to make statements about it to the large public. I will be happy however, to answer directly to any list member that has an interest to his or her e-mail address. That would be IMHO more appropriate since I can address issues specifically. I will try my best to answer promptly. Thank you for your interest and I assure you that we will do everything possible to try to find a cure for this aspect of Parkinson's disease. Rami Kaminski
