Despite overwhelming evidence that exercise can improve motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease (PD), less than 25% of Veterans with PD meet recommended activity goals. Interventions to increase PA that are scalable and can be deployed in the community represent a major opportunity. The investigators' preliminary work has demonstrated that gamification, a method commonly used for health promotion, can lead to increases in physical activity in PD. In this study, the investigators will test the effectiveness of gamification in a randomized trial to increase activity. Importantly, the investigators will also examine the effect of step count and exercise intensity on clinical outcomes and explore factors important to widespread implementation of the program VA.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of LY3962681 in healthy volunteers and patients with Parkinson's disease.
The study consists of two parts, the Single Ascending Dose (SAD) study and the Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) study.
During the SAD portion of the study, healthy volunteers will receive a single dose of LY3962681 or placebo (artificial cerebrospinal fluid \[aCSF\]) administered intrathecally (into the spinal fluid). During the MAD portion of the study, patients with Parkinson's disease will receive two doses of either LY3962681 or placebo (aCSF) administered intrathecally (into the spinal fluid), 12 to 24 weeks apart.
* The treatment period in the SAD study will be 1 day. The treatment period in the MAD study will be 2 dosing days, 12 to 24 weeks apart.
* The follow-up period in the SAD study will be up to 52 weeks. The follow-up period in the MAD study will be up to 52 weeks after Dose 2.
This is an unblinded, non-randomized National Institute of Health (NIH) Stage I of Behavioral Intervention Development trial. The investigators will enroll 20 subjects with Parkinson disease (PD) for a series of 20 of N-of-1 trials. The investigators will use a single-arm crossover titration/reversal design ("ON" \[A\] vs. "OFF" \[B\]) with up to 4 periods. All participants will follow the sequence ABAB. Each period will last up to 10 weeks, allowing for sufficient time for up-titration and onset of drug action, and down-titration and washout. Each participant will have the option to participate in less (2-3) or more (3-4) periods depending on whether additional information is needed to make an informed decision about continuing or discontinuing the overactive bladder (OAB) antimuscarinic at the end of the study. The intervention drug will be an OAB antimuscarinic, previously prescribed to the participants by their physician. The investigators will reduce the dose of each OAB antimuscarinic by 25-50% every 1-2 weeks during the "OFF" \[B\] period, with the goal to completely discontinue the medication.

The study looks to investigate the effects that light therapy delivered to the frontal cortex could have on Parkinson's disease related symptoms ( both cognitive and motor). The therapy is a non invasive technique that deliverers low level wavelength light to the front part of the head for 12 minutes. for this study the therapy will be done 3 times a week for 6 weeks. To measure the potential effects on the therapy in Parkinson symptoms, we will do a set of cognitive and motor test before and after the intervention to measure any changes as well as control for any potential markers such as age, sex, disease level, medication and exercise.

Given the expansion of indications for genetic testing and our understanding of conditions for which the results change medical management, it is imperative to consider novel ways to deliver care beyond the traditional genetic counseling visit, which are both amenable to large-scale implementation and sustainable. The investigators propose an entirely new approach for the implementation of genomic medicine, supported by the leadership of Penn Medicine, investigating the use of non-geneticist clinician and patient nudges in the delivery of genomic medicine through a pragmatic randomized clinical trial, addressing NHGRI priorities. Our application is highly conceptually and technically innovative, building upon expertise and infrastructure already in place.
Innovative qualities of our proposal include: 1) Cutting edge EHR infrastructure already built to support genomic medicine (e.g., partnering with multiple commercial genetic testing laboratories for direct test ordering and results reporting in the EHR); 2) Automated EHR-based direct ordering or referring by specialist clinicians (i.e., use of replicable modules that enable specialist clinicians to order genetic testing through Epic Smartsets, including all needed components, such as populated gene lists, smartphrases, genetic testing, informational websites and acknowledgement e-forms for patient signature); 3) EHR algorithms for accurate patient identification (i.e., electronic phenotype algorithms to identify eligible patients, none of which currently have phenotype algorithms present in PheKB; 4) Behavioral economics-informed implementation science methods: This trial will be the first to evaluate implementation strategies informed by behavioral economics, directed at clinicians and/or patients, for increasing the use of genetic testing; further it will be the first study in this area to test two forms of defaults as a potential local adaptation to facilitate implementation (ordering vs. referring); and 5) Dissemination: In addition to standard dissemination modalities,PheKB95, GitHub and Epic Community Library, the investigators propose to disseminate via AnVIL (NHGRI's Genomic Data Science Analysis, Visualization, and Informatics Lab-Space). Our results will represent an entirely new paradigm for the provision of genomic medicine for patients in whom the results of genetic testing change medical management.
