    @nitinshyamk Good question - I really like @MaryamShanechi review (https://t.co/VZ2yaeP4GJ) and, combined with Lozano's overview (https://t.co/XqoPJMQFYX), should give idea of where controls can help. The yearly DBS ThinkTank is a great way to update priors (https://t.co/Auw9hvQOFQ)

Abstract Synopsis

  • Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a significant medical breakthrough used to treat neurological and psychiatric disorders by directly measuring and stimulating brain activity.
  • Despite its success, challenges remain, such as identifying optimal brain target areas and appropriate patient groups for DBS treatment.
  • Future research aims to overcome these challenges by advancing our understanding of brain circuits, improving stimulation techniques, and expanding DBS applications for complex brain disorders.
