His team is investigating the reasons for this behaviour and aims to develop mathematical models that will help to better understand the &#8216;critical transition&#8217; of these nerve cells from a healthy to a diseased state.<\/p><p>With this better understanding of the cellular causes of PD, the researchers hope to open up new avenues for developing therapies for epileptic and parkinsonian patients.
