A team of physicians, neuroscientists and engineers demonstrated two new strategies that use deep brain stimulation to improve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. By simultaneously targeting two key brain structures and using a novel self-adjusting device, the team showed that they can efficiently target and improve disruptive symptoms caused by the movement disorder.
