Early detection of even the slightest motor function changes can be critical to slowing the progression of Parkinson’s disease. Yet these subtle signs often go unnoticed.

UF researcher Diego L. Guarín, Ph.D., is harnessing AI to spot these subtle changes from video recordings before clinical symptoms become evident to the clinician’s eyes.
