Incredibly excited and proud to share my latest dissertation study now published @PNASNews! Here we used quantitative redox biology and neurophysiology approaches to study the role of the mitochondrial redox environment in human sensorimotor function 🧵 pnas.org/content/118/43/e210…

Clinically effective DBS contacts elicit stronger sensorimotor evoked potentials than ineffective ones. Moreover, they better reduce cortical beta synchrony. At #NeuralTraces2024, @SpoonerRK offers possible explanations of why DBS actually works! doi.org/10.1038/s41531-024-0…

Thankful to the organizers of #NeuralTraces2024 for inviting me to share our latest work using combined MEG-DBS recordings in PD patients. This work would not be possible without the amazing patients volunteering their time and efforts to support research! #WorldParkinsonsDay2024
