[en] To facilitate the rapid expansion of our understanding of the genetic architecture of PD, both in terms of the depth and global context of this knowledge, we have created the Global Parkinson's Genetics Program (GP2; www.gp2.org). GP2 is the first supported resource project of the Aligning Science Across Parkinson's (ASAP) initiative, an audacious effort supporting PD research.9 GP2 is geared toward creating a worldwide collaborative effort that will first dramatically accelerate the identification of genetic contributors to disease and second establish a network of researchers who can best leverage this understanding to research, diagnose, and treat PD worldwide. Here we describe our mission, the path we have proposed to achieve this, and the core principles of data democratization, transparency, and diversity.
