Summary
This study looks at how Parkinson's disease affects the brain's ability to control actions, like stopping or switching tasks. Researchers will have 50 people with Parkinson's do joystick tasks while on their usual dopamine medication. The goal is to better understand these brain processes, not to test a new treatment.
