My main activities are conducting research to develop digital measurement informed risk prediction models for Parkinson's disease and developing novel digital biomarkers for bradykinesia and rigidity that are symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. I’m also the administrator of the clinical data management system and I’m involved in the preparation of the electronic case report forms that are used in the AI-PROGNOSIS studies.
