Parkinson's study links brain brakes to stepping over hurdles
NCT ID NCT07494461
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study looks at whether a specific brain function called inhibitory control — the ability to stop or change actions — is linked to how people with Parkinson's disease adjust their walking to step over obstacles. Researchers will measure brain activity with EEG and test walking patterns in 50 participants. The goal is to better understand the connection between thinking and movement, not to test a treatment.
