His lecture, titled &#8220;Mitochondria and the Two-Century Journey of Parkinson&#8217;s disease,&#8221; highlights the strides made in research after James Parkinson described the disease complex in 1817. <\/p>\n<p>The lecture celebrates this centennial milestone. It will focus on how alterations in glial and specifically mitochondrial dynamics provoke degeneration in specific neuronal subpopulations and lead to the devastating signs and symptoms of Parkinson&#8217;s. <\/p>\n<p>The lecture is open to faculty, staff, students and community members.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Columbia University&#8217;s Serge
