    Highlights • Near infrared light (NIr), directed transcranially, is neuroprotective in rodent models of neurodegeneration. • We assessed the neuroprotective efficacy of remotely-applied NIr in an MPTP mouse model of parkinsonism. • As with transcranial NIr, remote NIr protects dopaminergic cells from damage due to mild MPTP doses. • The findings have important implications for the clinical translation of light-based therapies.
