Rachel Dolhun, MD, movement disorder specialist, and vice president, medical communications at MJFF, talks about potential memory and thinking problems — including mild cognitive impairment and dementia — in Parkinson's disease. She discusses how these cognitive changes are evaluated and managed, why they occur, and what research is ongoing in these areas.

The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research is dedicated to finding a cure for Parkinson's disease through an aggressively funded research agenda and to ensuring the development of improved therapies for those living with Parkinson's today.
