In the early 1950s, no one knew what caused Parkinson's disease. Then, Arvid Carlsson's discovery of dopamine opened the door to world-leading transplantations for Parkinson's patients. Thanks to the pioneering basic research at MultiPark, stemcell-derived neural cells can now be tested in a clinical trial for the first time. In Parkinson's disease, the nerve cells in an area of the brain that con
