Super enlightening conversation as always with @volkmann_jens on all things DBS! 👇👇 at @stimbrains

[Andreas Horn @andreashorn_]

Thanks a lot @scangos & @LeoSugrue for a very nice commentary to our article w/ @garance_meyer about optimal deep brain stimulation sites for OCD in @BiologicalPsyc1!

Proud friend moment @NaN_Value @andreashorn_! This game-changer on modulating PD symptom networks w/ DBS has it all—innovative findings/methods, meticulous validations & beautiful figures. What a delight it has been witnessing you breathe life into it from the desk next to yours!

[Jil Meier @JilMeier]

Congratulations @NaN_Value @andreashorn_ and coauthors on this beautiful and comprehensive study!

[Nanditha Rajamani @NaN_Value]

23/n We tested Cleartune in a clinical setting with 5 patients prospectively enrolled by @MartinMReich1 from the University of Würzburg 🙏. In this blinded feasibility study: for 4/5 patients, Cleartune settings led to comparable, if not better, improvements than SoC!

Another (min) 4 years of top-notch neuromodulation research within @Retune_CRC!! Congrats to our PIs from @ExpNeuroBerlin and @BerlinStroke who are on board: @anna_kuf @ChristophHarms1 @WengerLab @pboehmsturm Matthias Endres

[Michael Ferguson 🧠😇🕊 @neuromichael]

Brilliant work to identify symptom-specific networks in Parkinson's disease, then to subsequently personalize deep brain stimulation targets based on a patient's symptom profile. 👏👏👏

Warm congrats @NaN_Value, @b_hollunder, @neumann_wj, @van_mila, @foxmdphd, @andreashorn_ & the whole talented team.🧠🌟

[Prof. Vladimir Litvak find me @vlitvak.bsky.social @LitvakVladimir]

Looks like another amazing study from @andreashorn_ and colleagues. Congratulations!

[Vanessa Milanese MD PhD @van_mila]

So honored to share that our paper led by @andreashorn_ with these inspiring women Nanditha Rajamani @HelenFriedrich_ @b_hollunder and so many brilliant authors (including my partner for almost 10 years and director of the functional neurosurgery course at @MayoClinic @EMiddlebrooksMD) is just out in @NatureNeuro 🫶

[Brigham and Women’s Research @BrighamResearch]

Millions of adults in the U.S. face mental health 🧠 issues each year. Our researchers are working to understand these conditions better and provide solutions for patients. @andreashorn_ talks about how work helped a patient with OCD regain her life.

[Helen.Friedrich @HelenFriedrich_]

🧠 🪄 Could specific brain tracts be targeted with DBS to address different symptoms of Parkinson‘s disease?

Very honored to be part of this exciting work alongside such brilliant minds. @NaN_Value @andreashorn_

[Maximilian U. Friedrich @vertigologist]

Taking tracts to the next level - amazing work by @NaN_Value @HelenFriedrich_ @andreashorn_ and a village of great scientists.

[Nanditha Rajamani @NaN_Value]

Modulating networks using DBS is an effective treatment for PD – but which circuits map to improvements in individual symptoms such as tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity, and axial? A 🧵 about our new paper out now in @NatureComms https://t.co/4KPUBGgsRd @netstim_org
