An early-stage clinical trial has shown that deep brain stimulation (DBS) applied to the cerebellum may aid the recovery of upper limb function after stroke. Researchers studied 12 people with ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a treatment for various neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and obsessive-compulsive disorder. It involves surgically implanting an electrode into your ...

Scientists at EPFL have developed an innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to significantly improve visual function in stroke patients who have suffered vision loss following a stroke.

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and Allegheny Health Network have developed a new method for deep brain stimulation. The technique, called "DeepFocus," uses transcranial electrical ...

New research in mice has identified specific brain cells that drive recovery after stroke, offering a biological explanation ...

What Is Deep Brain Stimulation? The procedure involves implanting electrodes within areas of the brain for people with movement conditions. "The electrodes produce electrical impulses that affect ...
