About Us

The Parkinson’s Foundation (Australia) undertakes scientific research into aspects of Parkinson’s Disease (PD), in particular relating to - Disease detection and screening assessments Monitoring of disease status and progression Our expertise is in the area of using artificial intelligence (AI) and human-computer interaction (HCI), which is the application of I.T. technologies in health-related domains. KeySense ® is one such technology, which has now been developed into a web-based application for general use. It utilizes keyboard typing to analyze finger movement, specifically relating to the changes in movement characteristics which occur in someone with Parkinson’s Disease. The lead researcher is Dr Warwick Adams. Other technologies being researched include voice analysis (as people with PD undergo changes in their voice pattens) and tremor analysis (as discriminating between PD tremor and other types of tremor can be difficult).
