Summary

This study looked at how the brain's emotional centers work in people with Parkinson's disease who had just received a deep brain stimulator implant. Researchers measured brain activity while patients listened to sounds or saw images with emotional meaning. The goal was to better understand how deep brain stimulation affects mood and motivation, not to treat the disease.
