Understanding Motivation in Parkinson's Patients Through Neurophysiology
Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco
Summary
The study aims to better understand motivation and value-based decision-making in Parkinson's patients through neurophysiology using Medtronic's Percept DBS device. By combining behavioral tasks with neural recordings, the study seeks to uncover how DBS affects motivation, particularly in relation to effort, reward, and timing.
