Summary

This study looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) changes brain activity in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will record brain signals during DBS surgery to create detailed maps that could help doctors target the right brain areas and program the device more precisely. About 36 adults with advanced Parkinson's who are already scheduled for DBS surgery will take part. The goal is to make DBS therapy more effective and personalized.
