On today’s episode, I speak with Dr. Ray Dorsey - the David M. Levy Professor of Neurology at the University of Rochester.  Ray is working to identify and eliminate the root causes of Parkinson’s disease.  His research on brain diseases and digital health has been published in leading academic journals and featured in multiple news outlets.  In 2020, Ray and his colleagues wrote Ending Parkinson’s Disease, a book that provides a prescription for ending the world’s fastest growing brain disease.

Ray previously directed the movement disorders division and neurology telemedicine at Johns Hopkins and worked as a consultant for McKinsey & Company.  In 2015, the White House recognized him as a “Champion for Change” for Parkinson’s disease.
