Super excited to share our new lab preprint showing that human pulvinar stimulation engages select cortical pathways by Jordan Bilderbeek, with @Kai_J_Miller @GregoryWorrell @HarveyHuangMed @JamieVanGompel @brunnerlab @JTWillieMD and others biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Human pulvinar stimulation engages select cortical pathways in epilepsy

The pulvinar has been proposed as an effective neuromodulation target for patients with posterior quadrant and temporal epilepsies. However, the pulvinar has a large tissue volume, multiple subnucl...

More evidence that working memory is not persistent activity. Instead, it is dynamic on/off states with short-term synaptic plasticity. Intermittent rate coding and cue-specific ensembles support working memory nature.com/articles/s41586-0… #neuroscience

Intermittent rate coding and cue-specific ensembles support working memory

Nature - By recording large populations of neurons in behaving monkeys using newly developed silicon probes, we show that intermittent periods of memorandum-specific spiking coexist with synaptic...

nature.com/articles/s41591-0… Centrolateral thalamic stimulation might help with cognitive deficits in TBI. Groundbreaking! It is critical that we continue to understand the role of thalamus in cognition and arousal to treat TBI, epilepsy, and other widespread network dysfunction.

Thalamic deep brain stimulation in traumatic brain injury: a phase 1, randomized feasibility study

Nature Medicine - A phase 1 feasibility trial shows that bilateral deep brain stimulation within the central lateral thalamus can be safely applied and is associated with improved executive control.

Do you know language of the cells (physiology) in Parkinson’s folks with STN DBS during emotional processing? @littleneuro and colleagues review this topic in @Natureand they show physiology recording from the STN in #Parkinsons revealing a component of alpha band activity in the STN actually correlates with processing of emotional stimuli and degree of depressive symptomatology. Pretty cool review article and fun read. @DBSThinkTank @leaddbs nature.com/articles/s41531-0…
