Physiology, Imaging and Modeling of Essential Tremor

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Essential Tremor, Parkinson Disease, Dystonia

In brief

This project aims to investigate novel ways to deliver brain stimulation to Essential Tremor (ET) patients by introducing software changes to their existing devices. The study team aims to investigate safety and efficacy of these new stimulation parameters in patients with ET.
