Abstract
The Central European Group on Genetics of Movement Disorders (CEGEMOD) has been established to address the lack of genetic reports from patients of Central European ancestry in the study of movement disorders. The consortium aims to create a collaborative network that will establish a registry of movement disorder patients, with a focus on Parkinson's disease and other related conditions. The goal is to identify genetic risk factors and explore genotype-phenotype correlations to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. The consortium has already enrolled nearly 3500 individuals, making it the largest ethnically matched case-control cohort in Central Europe. [Extracted from the article]
