Online arm movement training for people with Parkinson’s
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses online tasks to look at how people with Parkinson’s control reaching movements. You may benefit by contributing to research that could improve understanding and future treatments for movement problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 85 years old
- You can reach forward with your arm (about 20 cm / 8 inches)
- Your memory/thinking test score (MMSE) is 26 or higher out of 30
- You can and agree to attend all study testing sessions
- If you have Parkinson’s: you self-report idiopathic Parkinson’s and are taking Parkinson’s (dopamine) medication

This study tests an online program and task-based training to help people with mild Parkinson's disease improve their movement and reaching ability. It is designed for people who can still sit and reach for objects without major tremors or other health problems.
This study tests a way to help people control reaching movements during a task. You may be able to join if you can understand the instructions and successfully perform the reaching task during the experiment.
This study tests exercises to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their arm control, posture, and body awareness. Researchers will measure how well these targeted movements help with daily activities like eating, dressing, and writing.
This trial examines how self-controlled practice affects motor learning and motivation in people with Parkinson's disease. It aims to determine if giving participants control over their practice schedule can improve their ability to learn and perform motor tasks.
This study looks at whether having more control or “autonomy” helps you learn new movement tasks. It may help researchers find ways to improve physical therapy training for people with Parkinson’s.
This study looks at how people with Parkinson’s adapt their movements and how their brain sensorimotor system works. It may help researchers improve understanding of Parkinson’s and refine movement-focused therapies.
