The Finnish Parkinson Foundation has been involved in funding several research projects and doctoral theses focusing on movement disorders.

The results of this research have contributed to building our knowledge about Parkinson’s disease and helped us understand the problems faced by those diagnosed with the disease. Continuous research efforts are required to increase our knowledge of the underlying mechanisms of Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders, and to develop their treatment and rehabilitation.

The Finnish Parkinson Foundation accepts grant applications once a year.
It is the Foundation’s policy to maintain the total amount of grants awarded each year at the same or an increasing level over the long term. Grants are distributed from donated funds and from the Foundation’s multi-year average net returns on its assets. The Foundation’s funding is based entirely on private donations.
