Speech Biomarkers for Quantifying Effects of Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 628-640, September 2026.
Objective Dysarthria is one of the most common and disabling side effects of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Abstract The increasing frequency and intensity of droughts due to climate change poses a severe threat to the persistence of desert amphibians that require standing water to breed. In portions of the Sonoran Desert, tinajas (i.e., ephemeral rock pools that are filled by rain), which serve as the primary natural breeding sites for these amphibians, are

Right Hemisphere Functional Connectivity Increases in Proportion to Left Hemisphere Lesion Size, but Not Within the Language Network

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 13, September 2026.
Left‐hemisphere stroke was associated with widespread increases in right‐hemisphere functional connectivity; however, these changes were mostly outside the right‐hemisphere ‘language’ network and did not relate to behavior. Thus, these functional connectivity changes may reflect broad network disruption rather than a meaningful functional ...
