Scientists map Parkinson's brain to unlock better movement

NCT ID NCT05179187

Summary

This study aims to understand how different cues—like visual targets, rhythmic sounds, or rewards—help Parkinson's patients move more easily. Researchers will use brain scans (MRI) and brain wave recordings (EEG) on 90 participants (60 with Parkinson's, 30 healthy) while they perform movement tasks. The goal is to identify brain patterns that could guide future treatments for movement problems that don't respond well to current medications.
