We are very grateful for Stanford Neurosurgery’s huge support!
.@peter_tass lab is engaged in research designed to impact the course of diseases like #Parkinson’s. Their research involves several projects using invasive and non-invasive neuromodulation to disrupt the neural networks that amplify symptoms. #ParkinsonsAwarenessMonth
