Summary

This study involves 40 people with Parkinson's disease who are already scheduled for deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. During the surgery, while they are awake, researchers will record brain activity as they perform movement tasks with different cues. The goal is to understand which brain networks help improve movement, which could lead to better treatments for symptoms like freezing of gait.
