We hope to gain further insights into the underlying genetic causes and disease mechanisms of Parkinson's disease, which may be translated into the development of new targeted therapies for Parkinson's disease in the future.

into the underlying genetic causes and disease mechanisms of Parkinson's disease, which may be translated into the development of new targeted therapies for Parkinson's disease in the future.
What are our goals?
This is an opportunity to better understand the genetic architecture of Parkinson's disease in your country,
as all recruited patients will undergo extensive genotyping including testing for known mutations
in established Parkinson's disease genes, as well as whole genome sequencing and/or long-read sequencing in a selection of patients/families.

We encourage the submission of both patients without a genetic diagnosis and those already known to carry pathogenic variants in Parkinson's disease genes.

To submit a patient/family, go to
The two major aims of GP2 are to discover novel genetic causes of Parkinson's disease and to better characterize modifying factors influencing disease manifestation and progression.

To address these aims, the Monogenic Hub will recruit
and investigate Parkinson's disease patients with a potential monogenic basis, e.g. those with early onset (<50 years), positive family history, or atypical clinical presentation,
with particular attention to those originating from less well
studied (underrepresented) populations.

For clinicians and researchers, this project provides a great opportunity to better understand the genetic architecture of PD
in their respective communities/countries,
in addition to opportunities for scientific collaborations and joint publications
and grants.

What are the benefits of contributing cases/families?
For patients, knowledge of one's genetic status can provide valuable information regarding prognosis (likelihood of developing, or passing on, the disease; disease course; etc.), which may be helpful in life planning. It also opens up the possibility
of participating in clinical trials or benefiting from new genetics-based treatments.

Notably, all recruited patients will undergo extensive genotyping including testing for known mutations
in established Parkinson's disease genes (using
the Genome Diversity Array, GDA), and a large proportion will also undergo whole genome
and/or long-read sequencing.
