Totally Implantable Bidirectional Neural Prostheses: A Flexible Platform for Innovation in Neuromodulation. [PDF]
Implantable neural prostheses are in widespread use for treating a variety of brain disorders. Until recently, most implantable brain devices have been unidirectional, either delivering neurostimulation without brain sensing, or sensing brain activity to

Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by neuronal loss in the striatum, ultimately leading to an ‘imbalance’ in the electrical activity of the basal ganglia-thalamocortical circuits.

Nomogram for Predicting Depression Improvement after Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease
Background: Parkinson’s disease is a common neurodegenerative disease, with depression being a common non-motor symptom. Bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation is an effective method for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Neurosystems: brain rhythms and cognitive processing [PDF]
Neuronal rhythms are ubiquitous features of brain dynamics, and are highly correlated with cognitive processing. However, the relationship between the physiological mechanisms producing these rhythms and the functions associated with the rhythms remains ...

Aversion encoded in the subthalamic nucleus [PDF]
AbstractActivation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is associated with the stopping of ongoing behavior via the basal ganglia. However, we recently observed that optogenetic STN excitation induced a strong jumping/escaping behavior. We hypothesized that STN activation is aversive. To test this, place preference was assessed.

Is Deep Brain Stimulation a viable treatment for substance-related addiction? [PDF]
For the ability to modulate the activity of dysregulated networks Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of areas involved in reward system and motivational states may have a potential application in addiction despite risks associated with its invasiveness.

Central Dysmyelination in SSADH‐Deficient Humans and Mice
ABSTRACT Objectives Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency (SSADHD) is an inherited metabolic disorder characterized by an accumulation of γ‐aminobutyric (GABA). In addition to its synaptic role as an inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA also plays an important role in myelination.
