An Aussie breakthrough could transform life for those with Parkinson’s disease.

Researchers at the University of South Australia have created a biodegradable gel that delivers medication for up to a week — a significant improvement from multiple daily doses.

The injectable gel helps reduce tremors and stiffness, offering smoother, longer-lasting relief.

With over 150,000 Australians living with Parkinson’s, this could be a major shift in treatment. Clinical trials are next, and the future is looking brighter.
