In honor of #worldparkinsonsday, lets acknowledge some of the researchers and clinicians who have advanced our understanding of PD.
The first people to develop a rating scale for PD patients, the Hoehn and Yahr scale, which includes 5 stages of disease progression.
Out now in @natcomms.nature.com, our latest from @bodybrainbehaviour.bsky.social: Visual perception, oscillatory excitability markers, and network connectivity are modulated by the breathing rhythm - depending on how much you know about the stimulus.

🧠 Focused ultrasound changes emotional processing 🔊
In a new study published in Neuron today, we stimulated the human amygdala using transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) and show it plays a causal role in detecting and resolving emotional ambiguity.

New lab paper! 🧠
Human hippocampal & MTL theta activity is linked to eye movements, but only during memory-guided navigation. Theta is also strongest during longer, more exploratory eye movements.

A brief 🧵on our first trip into this corner of #brain-body #neuroskyence:
Our centre is not just hosting this event. We are also opening our lab doors to symposium participants.
New discovery! Different anesthetics all seem to push the brain into unconsciousness in the same way: Activity is destabilized and dominated by slow waves. This could block signals.
