Researchers have produced definitive evidence that a specific region in the brain, called the subthalamic nucleus, is critical to governing the mind's communication with the body's motor control ...

Study shows that activity in the subthalamic nucleus reflects action outcomes and consequent adaptation in humans; this can be modified through bursts of electrical stimulation, with potential to ...

(A) Experimental design. (B) Behavior assessments using open field tests. Heatmaps illustrate time spent (red) and movement trajectories (green). The PD group exhibited decreased movement speed ...

Researchers have applied a chemogenetic tool in macaque monkeys and suppressed the subthalamic nucleus, a part of the basal ganglia circuitry. The chemogenetic suppression induced unstable movements.
