Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for people with Parkinson's disease who are scheduled to have deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. Participants will help researchers understand how brain activity affects motor symptoms and how treatment can be customized in real-time.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
- I can provide informed consent.
- I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
- I am a candidate for DBS surgery targeting the subthalamic nucleus.
- I can tolerate delays in taking my Parkinson's medication.
You may not be able to join if
- I have secondary Parkinsonism, stroke, or another progressive brain disease.
- I have a condition that might interfere with my safety or compliance in the study.

About This Trial
A prospective cohort of patients scheduled to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation surgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease as per standard of care will be invited to participate in this study. This mechanistic study is aimed at better understanding the role of basal ganglia beta band (11-35 Hz) oscillations and resonance in the manifestation of Parkinson's disease (PD) motor …
