This episode delves into the gender gap in Parkinson’s research. It’s estimated that three million women worldwide are living with the condition – but are their specific needs being properly addressed in scientific studies? It’s a topic that is important to our guests, Dr Annelien Oosterbaan – a physician-researcher from the Netherlands – and retired family physician Dr Soania Mathur from Toronto, Canada. Both Annelien and Soania contributed to a recent study exploring gaps in awareness about sex and gender differences in Parkinson’s. The paper, “Unmet Needs of Women Living with Parkinson’s Disease”, highlights how women’s experiences of the condition have been an “overlooked field” – and includes recommendations to help tackle the problem. In their conversation, Annelien and Soania discuss the areas they think have been neglected in Parkinson’s research – while sharing insights from their personal experiences of life with the condition.

An estimated three million women around the world are living with Parkinson’s. But historically, their specific needs and experiences have been neglected – leading to disparities in diagnosis, treatment and medication. In this episode, Dr Lucía Ferro joins us from Barcelona, Spain. Diagnosed with Parkinson’s three years ago, she has since become passionate about raising awareness of the unique challenges that face women with the condition. Joining her for an open conversation is US-based boxing coach and former engineer Lori DePorter. Referring to her own diagnosis as a “perfect storm of events”, Lori has found ways to help manage Parkinson’s – and its impact on other aspects of her life. Lucía and Lori discuss their personal experiences – from health and work, to family life – and feeling represented in the community.

The more we’ve talked to people living with Parkinson’s, the more we’ve learned about the impact of compulsive and impulsive behaviours. A potential side effect of dopamine agonists (that is, commonly prescribed Parkinson’s medications that mimic dopamine in the brain), these might include compulsive gambling, shopping or hypersexuality. In this episode, UK-based Vicki Dillon shares her own difficult experience of impulsive behaviours, which saw her personality change while her job, finances, reputation and family life suffered. She is joined by Dr Angelo Antonini, an academic neurologist from Italy who has around 30 years of experience supporting people with Parkinson’s. He shares his perspective on approaching dopamine agonists – and treating his patients with care and empathy. In their conversation, Vicki and Angelo discuss the implications of dopamine agonists, how to address compulsive and impulsive behaviours – and why awareness about the issue is key to overcoming stigma and helping people with Parkinson’s.

In our second episode on deep brain stimulation, two guests discuss what life is like after having DBS surgery – from symptoms and charging the device, to check-ups and body image. Our first guest is Peter Schielzeth, a 58-year-old retired Chief Operating Officer, who now does pro bono work for a start-up. Peter lives in Germany with his husband, as well as his pet dog Basti. Peter was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2014 – and says that taking the decision to have DBS four years later has had a significant impact on his experience of tremor. He talks to Louise Ebenezer, a Parkinson’s disease nurse specialist based in Wales, UK. Louise’s role includes meeting with people who’ve been diagnosed with the condition – and discussing referrals for treatments like deep brain stimulation. She describes her job as the best she’s ever had – and says she now can’t imagine working in any other area.
