Personalized, adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) can enhance the control of motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with standard DBS, new research suggests. In a blinded randomized ...

The SNS records neural activity from 60 channels across four brain regions—an order-of-magnitude increase over commercially ...

A large multicenter clinical trial led by King's College London with 150 children and adolescents has shown that a device ...

What Is Deep Brain Stimulation? The procedure involves implanting electrodes within areas of the brain for people with movement conditions. "The electrodes produce electrical impulses that affect ...

Novel magnetic nanodiscs could provide a much less invasive way of stimulating parts of the brain, paving the way for stimulation therapies without implants or genetic modification, researchers report ...

Scientists at EPFL have developed an innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to significantly improve visual function in stroke patients who have suffered vision loss following a stroke.

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) can be addressed by the right intervention even in severe, refractory cases. These cases, characterized by involuntary muscle movements, are most often caused by antipsychotics ...

Deep brain stimulation enhances memory, may ease Alzheimer's symptoms. Feb. 8, 2012— -- A new study suggests that driving electricity deep into the brain can boost memory, shedding light on a ...

Deep brain stimulation – implants in the brain that act as a kind of 'pacemaker' – has led to clinical improvements in half of the participants with treatment-resistant severe depression in an 'open ...

A new brain device from Northwestern University is asking a daring question: what if information could reach your brain ...

A new brain stimulating helmet that could improve the treatment of both depression and Parkinson's disease represents a "paradigm shift" for neuroscience, say researchers. The ultrasound device ...

Music affects us so deeply that it can essentially take control of our brain waves and get our bodies moving. Now, neuroscientists at Stanford's Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute are taking advantage of ...
