Dr
J William Langston
Dr
Langston is the founder, Scientific Director and Chief Operating
Officer of the Parkinson's Institute in Sunnyvale, California.
He is internationally recognized for the discovery of the link
between MPTP and parkinsonism, which has provided an entirely
new tool to study neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s disease
and stimulated great interest finding environmental factors
that may cause the disease. His current research interests include
the study of mechanisms of neuronal degeneration, the etiology
of Parkinson’s disease, and the development of new strategies
to slow or halt disease progression. Dr Langston serves on numerous
editorial boards and advisory committees and is Chief Scientific
