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.
Big thanks to @patriciazvarova.bsky.social and @bahnebahners.bsky.social for their wonderful contributions, and to @andreashorn.org for his mentorship on this project! Read the full study here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
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....

Excited to introduce our database of icons for MDS-UPDRS-III items in Parkinson’s disease! Available at osf.io/ybcah/ in various formats for easy edits. We hope these icons help enhancing science communication. Big thanks to @andreashorn.org, @lukasgoede.bsky.social and the patients for their input!
Following up on my previous post, the illustration we were talking about. Which, of course, wouldn’t be possible without my friend’s brilliant article.
