Read our Parkinson Disease research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers want to understand how electrical activity in deep brain structures relates to normal and abnormal movement. They're studying people with Parkinson's disease who already have monitoring devices implanted in their brains, and people with drug-resistant epilepsy undergoing pre-surgical brain mapping. During the study, you'll perform a simple hand movement task while the research team records electrical signals from your brain.
Movement disorders like Parkinson's disease and some forms of epilepsy involve problems with how the brain's deep structures communicate. By measuring brain electrical activity during movement in people who already have recording electrodes in place for medical care, researchers hope to discover patterns that could eventually lead to better treatments.

You'll visit the research center and perform a simple task: gripping and pulling a lever while the research team records electrical signals from the electrodes already in your brain (placed as part of your medical care). The session should take a few hours. No additional surgical procedures or electrode placements are needed—researchers use the monitoring systems you already have in place for your medical treatment.
