Media Cover STSI Study Looking to Improve Parkinson's Diagnosis

Clinical trial combines DNA testing with wireless sensor to track participants

Scripps Translational Science Institute (STSI) has launched a clinical trial, the Molecular Autopsy Study. Researchers conducting the study hope that DNA sequencing can, for the first time, determine the root cause of sudden unexpected death in many families.

A number of media outlets have covered a newly launched clinical trial by the Scripps Translational Science Institute, which is using genetic testing and wireless sensors in an effort to improve the diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease.
