Towards a computational model for stimulation of the Pedunculopontine nucleus [PDF]
The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) has recently been suggested as a new therapeutic target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, particularly those with severe gait and postural impairment [1].

Deep brain and cortical stimulation for epilepsy [PDF]
Background : Despite optimal medical treatment, including epilepsy surgery, many epilepsy patients have uncontrolled seizures. In the last decades, interest has grown in invasive intracranial neurostimulation as a treatment for these patients ...

Neuromodulation of the cerebellum rescues movement in a mouse model of ataxia
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has potential for several movement disorders. Here the authors show that DBS improves motor function in a mouse model of ataxia.

Increased bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease with increased movement complexity: elbow flexion-extension movements [PDF]
The present research investigates factors contributing to bradykinesia in the control of simple and complex voluntary limb movement in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients.

Informed consent decision-making in deep brain stimulation [PDF]
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proved useful for several movement disorders (Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, dystonia), in which first and/or second line pharmacological treatments were inefficacious.

Low-Noise Amplifier for Deep-Brain Stimulation (DBS)
Deep-brain stimulation (DBS) is an emerging research topic aiming to improve the quality of life of patients with brain diseases, and a great deal of effort has been focused on the development of implantable devices. This paper presents a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for the acquisition of biopotentials on DBS. This electronic module was designed in a low-

Optogenetics and deep brain stimulation neurotechnologies [PDF]
Brain neural network is composed of densely packed, intricately wired neurons whose activity patterns ultimately give rise to every behavior, thought, or emotion that we experience. Over the past decade, a novel neurotechnique, optogenetics that combines
