Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Movement Disorders focuses on the diagnosis, mechanisms, and treatment of neurological disorders affecting movement. Recent articles investigate genetic and molecular underpinnings of conditions like Parkinson's disease, spinocerebellar ataxias, and Huntington's disease. Research also explores therapeutic interventions including gene therapy, deep brain stimulation, and novel drug development, alongside diagnostic tools and the impact of non-motor symptoms.
