Grant Activity:
Neurobiological mechanism of deep brain stimulation in the treatment of Parkinsons's disease
Purpose:
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with motor and non-motor symptoms. Deep brain stimulation is a current treatment for Parkinson’s. However, it is still unclear if deep brain stimulation (DBS) acts via excitation or inhibition of target neurons and moreover its impact on non-motor symptoms. This project applies optogenetics tools to dissociate the underlying mechanism of DBS in PD for the improved treatment of PD.
