I have a strong family history of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s on both sides of my family, I’m genetically at-risk for Parkinson’s as an LRRK2 G2019S carrier, I’m a former and current care partner to two people with Parkinson’s, and personally most motivating to me is that I’m a mother to three sons who are also at increased risk for NDD. Here, LRRK2 is linked to Parkinson disease.
