Researchers at University College Cork (UCC) have embarked on a world-first study that could transform how women manage their Parkinson’s disease.

They are collaborating with Richelle Flanagan who, following a diagnosis with Young Onset Parkinson’s disease, developed the My Moves Matter digital health app to track women’s symptoms across her menstrual cycle.
