UNILAG Researchers Collaboration with Global Consortium Unravels Novel Parkinson’s Genetic Risk Factor in Africans and African Admixed Populations
Researchers from the University of Lagos are key collaborators in the Global Parkinson’s Genetics Program (GP2) that uncovered a genetic variant that increases the risk of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in Africans and African admixed populations. The research finding was the result of teamwork by an international team including the Nigeria Parkinson Disease Research (NPDR) network, the International Parkinson’s Disease Genomics Consortium (IPDGC)-Africa, University College London, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in the US, and […]
