Introduction to the Parkinsons Disease's early detection

After witnessing my Grandpa's battle with Parkinson’s, I developed an interest in studying treatment. I noticed that due to the lack of early detection, many Parkinson's patients lost their opportunity to receive effective treatment at the early stages of the disease when treatment can make the most difference in long-term outcomes. I want to call more people to pay attention to this disease.
