Excited to see our work on motor thalamus #dbs for upper-limb motor deficits after cerebral lesions published today: #neurotechnology #womeninstem nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Potentiation of cortico-spinal output via targeted electrical stimulation of the motor thalamus

Nature Communications - Cerebral lesions result in loss of upper-limb motor functions. Here, the authors show that electrical stimulation of the motor thalamus can immediately and significantly...

🚨New #preprints alert!🚨 Excited to share our work on #DeepBrainStimulation of the motor thalamus to enhance speech & swallowing. This continues our research led by @LillyTang & me, with guidance from @ElviraPirondini & Jorge Gonzalez-Martinez. 🧠1/8 medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Targeted deep brain stimulation of the motor thalamus improves speech and swallowing motor functi...

Speech and swallowing are complex motor acts that depend upon the integrity of input neural signals from motor cortical areas to control muscles of the head and neck. Lesions damaging these neural...
