Scientists discover a hidden brain rhythm that could improve Parkinson’s treatment

SMRTR summary

Scientists have discovered a specific brain network that operates at a "high beta" frequency (20-35 Hz), which appears to drive how well deep brain stimulation treats Parkinson's disease. By mapping both the location and timing of brain signals simultaneously in 50 patients, researchers can now potentially fine-tune treatments for patients who haven't fully responded.
