Prof K Ray Chaudhuri, head of King’s Parkinson’s Centre of Excellence, collaborated with Dr Annete Hand, a Parkinson’s Nurse Consultant from Northumbria University. They published an article on the British Journal of Neuroscience Nursing titled “The clinical impact of COVID-19 infection on people with Parkinson’s”.
