Brain zaps reveal secrets of movement in Parkinson's

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion criteria for patients who will be operated 1. Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (according to the criteria of the United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society Brain Bank) 2.
