Study Summary

Our goal is to better understand how DBS modifies local neuronal activity and to pioneer device technologies that can record local DBS-evoked potentials (DLEPs) to guide therapy. Our vision is for a patient's unique electrophysiology to guide both electrode targeting during surgery and programming in clinic, eventually as an integrated component of the implanted pulse generator. Our results will inform directional DBS for PD and serve as a model for translation to other diseases where knowledge on DBS circuit interactions is at an even earlier stage.

Primary Outcome

The investigator will validate the biological origin of the signals using pairs of DBS pulses and neural refractoriness with an external stimulation/recording system at therapeutically relevant stimulus amplitudes (i.e., inside and outside the therapeutic window).
