The Coming Neurological Epidemic

A fascinating talk that links an aging global population with increased incidence of neurological disease like Parkinson's and Alzhimer's disease. It also provides insight on simple steps that one can take to reduce incidence of neurological disease. For me this area is incredibly interesting as I am now working on Dance & PD - how simple dance movements can help those suffering from Parkinson's disease. I have seen first hand (see earlier entry) of the positive impact of music and dance on patients suffering from neurological disease. And this talk has inspired me to be part of the solution.
