Neurophysiology of Reward Signaling in Parkinson's Disease
Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Start Date
9/1/2024
Completion Date
9/30/2029
Summary
The goal of this study is to learn more about the brain activity underlying Parkinson's disease risk taking and reward seeking behaviors. The investigators will utilize neural recordings from corticostriatal structures performed during deep brain stimulation surgery to measure neural activity underlying nonmotor symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
