Konstantin Butenko compares four methods for mapping structural network activations in deep brain stimulation—two simple, two complex; some deterministic, some probabilistic—into @lead-dbs.org for direct use in the Fiber Filtering Explorer. See the methods paper below 👇👇

Lead-DBS@lead-dbs.org · 12mo ago

How should we best model recruitment of axons by deep brain stimulation? Various concepts have been introduced and Konstantin Butenko just introduced a few more in a new publication at Brain Communications: academic.oup.com/braincomms/a...

Is there a brain circuit target for restoring consciousness after brain injury? New work by @rolstonjohn.bsky.social @braincircuits.bsky.social says yes!

John Rolston@rolstonjohn.bsky.social · last yr.

Just dropped in @natcomms.nature.com: we show that re-engaging a thalamic–ventral tegmental circuit with deep brain stimulation can reignite consciousness in patients with severe brain injury. Work led by Aaron Warren, with @andreashorn.org @foxmdphd.bsky.social @ others! tinyurl.com/4kz8j89b

How may traveling waves in the brain impact seizure focus detection in functional neurosurgery? How does RNS for epilepsy really work? Are we ready for stem cell therapy in PD? DBS for disorders of consciousness? Find out in a conversation with the one and only @rolstonjohn.bsky.social 👇👇

Stimulating Brains@stimulatingbrains.org · last yr.

We had a wonderful time talking to @rolstonjohn.bsky.social, the Director of Epilepsy Surgery at Brigham & Women's Hospital. We talk about RNS for epilepsy, DBS for coma, traveling waves in the brain, stem cell therapy, closed loop DBS & more! Tune in 👇 stimulatingbrains.org/72-john-rols...

Massive, Herculanean work by @laurenahart.bsky.social and Garance Meyer to compile and integrate findings from DBS for epilepsy (20 targets!) including meta-analytical evidence for optimal stimulation sites for the two main targets (ANT & CM). Preprint out now 👇👇

Can a brain injury lead someone to commit a crime? Brain imaging is increasingly introduced as evidence in criminal trials but it remains unclear which structural injuries play a causal role in criminal behavior. @braincircuits.bsky.social @foxmdphd.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thrilled our ADHD network mapping work is now out in Annals of the Child Neurology Society, and honored to be featured on the cover! 🔗 Full article: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... @childneurosoc.bsky.social @bostonchildrens.bsky.social @simonwarfield.bsky.social @braincircuits.bsky.social

Coordinate Network Mapping of Focal Brain Volume Differences in ADHD Reveals Common Patterns That Lack Specificity: A Systematic Review

Objective Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been associated with decreased regional brain volume, yet no consistent localization has emerged across studies. This discrepancy has be...

Are we on the cusp of moving beyond the levodopa challenge test to predict the best candidates and response to DBS in Parkinson's disease? We’ve long relied on the levodopa challenge to decide who’s a good candidate for deep brain stimulation but what if that test is only part of the story?

Is there a shared brain circuit target for tremor that transcends diagnosis and DBS site? New work by @lukasgoede.bsky.social @andreashorn.org @braincircuits.bsky.social says YES

Lukas Goede@lukasgoede.bsky.social · last yr.

Tremor is a common symptom across many neurological disorders. But is there a shared tremor circuit across disorders - one that could guide treatment, regardless of diagnosis? We think: yes. Our study is out now in @natcomms.nature.com: 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵 A thread.

Andreas Horn@andreashorn.org · last yr.

Curious in an update on networks involved in treating tremor using neuromodulation? New study from the lab spearheaded by the one and only @lukasgoede.bsky.social out now at nature comms - nice summary thread below 👇👇

Patient selection for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is crucial. Are there ways to improve it? In our new study, we found hints that non-invasive brain stimulation might enhance the levodopa response - and serve as an additional marker for DBS outcomes. doi.org/10.1002/acn3... A thread. 🧵

Patient Selection in Deep Brain Stimulation: A Role for Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Enhance the Levodopa Challenge?

Dopaminergic medication and deep brain stimulation (DBS) improve motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), but levodopa response alone may not predict DBS outcomes. We retrospectively analyzed 19 P...
