Condition: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP)
Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare and complex neurological condition that progressively affects functions such as movement, balance, vision, speech, and swallowing.[1] [2] [3]
Progressive supranuclear palsy gets its full name because:
it characteristically gets worse over time (progressive),
it damages the parts of the brain that control eye movements (supranuclear) and it causes muscle weakness (palsy).[1] [2] [3]
PSP belongs to a category of disorders called Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders. It often gets misdiagnosed as Parkinson’s disease early on due to some overlapping symptoms like problems with balance, walking, coordination, and eye movements.[1]

Our vision
Neural Network aims to make it easy for anyone to access high-quality information on neurodegenerative conditions.
To achieve this it provides a framework for accessing an ever-growing library of resources, information and support, all from one central online location.
The resources detailed within the Neural Network have been curated for their credibility, clarity and utility.
Disclaimer
Neural Network does not provide medical advice. The resources it facilitates access to are for reference, research and educational purposes only, and they are not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Always seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional about any medical concern, and do not disregard professional medical advice because of anything you may access on the Neural Network.

Get in Touch
A critical aim of the Neural Network is to provide an easily-accessible source of information on ongoing Clinical Trials that members of the public may not be aware of. I'm passionate about keeping the information here useful and relevant and so if you have feedback, discover a linked webpage has been removed before I do, or are running clinical trials and would like to collaborate then please feel free to either email at: contact@neuralnetwork.org or complete the adjacent form.
