First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This early study tests whether a special brain pacemaker (adaptive deep brain stimulation) can safely help people with spinocerebellar ataxia type 6, a rare disease that causes balance and coordination problems. Five adults will have electrodes placed in the cerebellum to record brain signals and deliver stimulation that automatically adjusts. The goal is to find the best settings and see if it improves walking and daily function.
