About Project

In this episode, Dr. med. Ines Debove and Prof. Daniel Weintraub discuss why collaboration between psychiatry and neurology is essential in Parkinson’s disease – a condition best understood as neuropsychiatric.

Parkinson’s doesn’t only affect movement. The brain changes underlying the disease also contribute to psychiatric symptoms. Recognizing this neurobiological connection allows clinicians to better support patients and caregivers, opening the door to more empathetic conversations about challenging issues such as impulse control disorders.

Watch our latest video to learn how integrating neurological and psychiatric perspectives can improve care, strengthen communication, and enhance quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s and their families.
