Investigating neural and kinematic signatures of movement using synchronous neural and kinematic recordings in freely moving human, Parkinson's Disease patients

[IFCN and its Clinical Neurophysiology journals @ClinicalNeuroph]

[DBS study of Parkinson’s disease] Shreve et al.: “Parkinson’s neural oscillations and coupling were greater in the more affected subthalamic nucleus and were evident in 98% cases.”

New paper from the lab! Higher interhemispheric STN beta coherence correlates with worsening bradykinesia and disease progression, unlike local STN beta dynamics. https://t.co/Vs0Pnvif1g @Stanford_Neuro

The Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Lab under Dr. Bronte-Stewart @HBSlab is seeking a neural engineering postdoctoral scholar to investigate neural closed loop deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease. Learn more and apply: https://t.co/sTFtm5KPVg

[Bronte-Stewart Lab @HBSlab]

96 individuals with Parkinson's Disease performed a 30 second QDG-RAFT task to reliably track disease progression and cardinal motor symptoms, including rigidity. Learn more here! https://t.co/RindPMUCB9 @Stanford_Neuro

[Bronte-Stewart Lab @HBSlab]

This analysis shows that raw IMU data can provide valuable information to help physicians track and manage patient disease progression. Big thanks to @mrlee543 @SeagersKirsten @johanping @kidzik and @StanfordNMBL for this great work!

[Bronte-Stewart Lab @HBSlab]

Detecting #freezingofgait outside the clinic has become imperative for tracking disease progression in PD. Watch this great presentation on the minimal set of wearable IMUs needed to objectively detect FOG with high clinical utility! https://t.co/YTT4pumO9z

[Bronte-Stewart Lab @HBSlab]

In fact, a single IMU on the ankle performed within 4% of the top performing 3 IMU set. Both the lumbar and ankle IMUs were rated highly wearable by patients. Check out the open source data and software at: https://t.co/TyGT8lf6w8

Great work team! @kehnemoomoo @MattPetrucciPhD @KevinWilkins24

[Bronte-Stewart Lab @HBSlab]

New publication from the lab! While the sequence effect worsens over time in repeat visits with disease progression, it improves in response to open and closed-loop STN stimulation. https://t.co/ig16Ex84Si

Truly a great team effort! Check out: "Assessing inertial measurement unit locations for freezing of gait detection and patient preference"

[Hannah O’Day @johanping]

My favorite thing about science? The magic of working together. With 3 co-first authors and 2 co-last authors, this impactful work is elevated by many perspectives (patients, engineers, clinicians, statisticians). Science is human. https://t.co/yJlD8DFgRw

Grateful for our team.
