Cover Article: Impairments in gait, posture and complex movement control in rats modeling the multi-system, cholinergic-dopaminergic losses in Parkinson’s Disease

by Aaron Kucinski (Collaborators at University Michigan, Ann Arbor: K. Phillips, R. Albin, M. Sarter) In addition to the primary disease-defining symptoms that result from extensive loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons, approximately half of patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) suffer from postural instability, impairments in gait control and a propensity for falls. These symptoms have
