Deep brain stimulation is a complex movement disorder intervention that requires highly invasive brain surgery. Clinicians struggle to predict how patients will respond to this treatment. To address this problem, we are working toward developing a cl...
The rapid progress of the combination of medicine and engineering provides better chances for the clinical treatment and healthcare engineering. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its related symptoms have become a major global health problem. At prese...

OBJECTIVE: A downside of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's Disease (PD) is that cognitive function may deteriorate postoperatively. Electroencephalography (EEG) was explored as biomarker of cognition using a Machine Learning (ML) pipeline.
BACKGROUND: Several surgical methods are used for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes and electrode placement accuracy after robot-assisted (RAS) ver...
Commonly used for Parkinson's disease (PD), deep brain stimulation (DBS) produces marked clinical benefits when optimized. However, assessing the large number of possible stimulation settings (i.e., programming) requires numerous clinic visits. Here,...

PURPOSE: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a proven therapy for Parkinson's Disease (PD), frequently resulting in an enhancement of motor function. Nonetheless, several undesirable side effects can occur after DBS, which can worsen the quality of life ...
Closed-loop brain stimulation refers to capturing neurophysiological measures such as electroencephalography (EEG), quickly identifying neural events of interest, and producing auditory, magnetic or electrical stimulation so as to interact with brain...
BACKGROUND: Methodological approaches to deep brain stimulation (DBS) continue to evolve from awake frame-based to asleep frameless procedures with robotic assistance, primarily directed to optimize operative efficiency, lead accuracy, and patient co...
BACKGROUND: A number of stereotactic platforms are available for performing deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead implantation. Robot-assisted stereotaxy has emerged more recently demonstrating comparable accuracy and shorter operating room times compare...
Neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, are responsible for mediating a wide array of neurologic functions, from memory to motivation. From measurements using fast scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV), one of the main tools used to detect synapt...
