Drinking, Drugs and Genes

This week we're offering listeners a bit of a 'potpourri' episode, featuring updates from each of us, as well as our loyal Northern Correspondent, Christopher Lambton. We're focussing on drinking, drugs and genes, asking the questions we all want answers to: Does drinking actually make our Parkinson's worse? What new developments are there in the field of drugs trials? And could gene-oriented treatments pave the way for a cure? Well, there's good news and bad news..

Movers & Shakers is brought to you in partnership with Cure Parkinson's.

Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, Gillian Lacey-Solymar, Mark Mardell, Paul Mayhew-Archer, Sir Nicholas Mostyn and Jeremy Paxman.

Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot.

Associate Producer: Lulu Goad & Ewan Cameron
