Our new work: "Electrophysiological differences between upper and lower limb movements in the human subthalamic nucleus"
Shows functional segregation of limbs in both the frequency and spatial domain, using recordings from directional DBS leads

New image publication out in the @GreenJournal featuring my own brain scanned at 7T. ~a century after Edinger's comb and Wilson's pencils were described histologically, we can now noninvasively show these structures in living humans using MRI.

@b_alfatly Finally, maybe the "highlight" of the manuscript is that tremor in specific body parts (hand vs. head) best respond to modulation of functional networks that correspond to the homuncular organization of M1 and functional somatotopy maps in the cerebellum.

[Andreas Horn @andreashorn_]

@b_alfatly The same applies to structural connectivity and a specific corticothalamic tract as well as dentatothalamic tract is predictive of good symptom alleviation in essential tremor.

[Andreas Horn @andreashorn_]

@b_alfatly Functional connectivity profile predictive of tremor improvement and predictive power in leave-one-out crossvalidation.

[Andreas Horn @andreashorn_]

Fundamental work in new preprint by the one and only @b_alfatly about #DBS #Connectivity in tremor.
DBS connectivity is predictive of tremor improvement and tremor somatotopy. 1/n

[Andreas Horn @andreashorn_]

Personal highlight from @dpg_akbont was Till Dembeks talk in which he shed light on current mistakes of segmented lead studies. 1mA on a segment leads to larger energy values /VTAs than 1mA on a ring contact. Not taken into account in all the clinical comparison studies..

@andreashorn_ found this on wikimedia. Hopefully ok to use?

Dr. Polina Anikeeva’s lab designs probes that are compatible with delicate neural tissue, but match the signaling complexity of neural circuits. Read more on her and this emerging neural tech #neuromodulation #brainmodulation

[Neuromodulation @brainmodulation]

There’s a need for a wireless technology that enables precise, minimally-invasive modulation of deep brain structures. This animal study is a step in that direction #neuromodulation #brainmodulation #DBS
