Brain pacemaker learns to fight movement disorder

NCT ID NCT07288437

Summary

This study is testing whether a 'smart' brain implant can safely help control movement and balance problems in people with spinocerebellar ataxia type 6. Five adults with this genetic condition will receive a device that listens to their brain signals and automatically adjusts its electrical stimulation. Researchers want to see if this adaptive approach is feasible and safe for managing ataxia symptoms.
