Caroline Moreau co-developed a Parkinson's treatment system that uses an implanted abdominal pump and fine catheter to continuously deliver anaerobic dopamine to the brain. The approach addresses advanced Parkinson's symptoms by stabilizing dopamine delivery; Moreau co-authored its 2025 phase 1/2 clinical-trial report.
