Our paper on the “sweetspot” for focused ultrasound in essential tremor was finally published last week in science advances! So happy to finally share this work and so thankful to everyone who helped make this happen. Read it here: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… MGB Neurosurgery

Congratulations to our Human Neural Circuitry team; bit.ly/4dEyX7Z publishes today in Science! This was the hardest challenge of my career, but one of the most rewarding, after years of rebuilding– & for myself, expanding my inpatient neuropsychiatry work to the service

Excited to share our new paper out in Movement Disorders Journal We looked at acute dyskinesia during monopolar review in STN & GPi DBS in PD and found correlations with modulation of subthalamo-pallidal fibers. Could this path also be related to levodopa dyskinesias? …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…

Fiber Data Hub now includes two large brain tumor datasets (data-nih/tcia at brain.labsolver.org): 🧠 UPenn-GBM (~600) 🧠 UCSF-PDGM (~400) I've fixed the original DWI—without these fixes, they wouldn't be usable for tracking! Now we can track any of the ~1,000 patients.

Great paper by Florian Lange using VisionMD.ai to uncover 3 novel kinematic domains of bradykinesia. Look at these distinct profiles in response to levodopa. Much more detail than "decrement" or "hesitation"! npj Journals nature.com/articles/s4153…

Essential tremor vs. essential tremor plus? Confused? Me too! As the debate rages on, Tsuboi and colleagues try to help us sort it out. Spoiler alert: physiology and accelerometry not helpful. The authors remind us that the line between ET and essential tremor plus (ETP) is far

One of the largest #schizophrenia #DTI datasets (~400 patients) is now available on #FiberDataHub (brain.labsolver.org) (data-nih/nda/nda-2098/) To my knowledge, no tractometry or tract-to-region analyses have yet been conducted on this dataset—lots of opportunities ahead!

Local field potentials (LFPs) have become a crucial biomarker in programming adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) systems, helping to identify not only motor symptoms but also potential mood and behavioral markers. loom.ly/1Mxjm1I

Keep an eye out for super star med student Taylor Edwards and her work on using AI to predict the risk of pneumocephalus during DBS lead implantation. Why is this important? Read Enrique Martinez's paper on keeping the fork tremorjournal.org/articles/10.53…

MILESTONE! 100th patient treated with focused ultrasound at UF Health . Dr Justin Hilliard FLORIDA neurosurgeon specializes in the treatment of patients with neurological diseases such as essential tremor with leading-edge minimally invasive technology.

Excited to talk about NeuroAI for deep brain stimulation programming at the 5th IRCND meeting! gasnd.org/ircnd/2025/ind…

DBS presurgical evaluations often involve a multidisciplinary team, yet social workers are underutilized. Dr. Amanda Currie shares insights on the value of social workers in the DBS process and how other programs may benefit from these findings. loom.ly/zrklMHE

Great group to work with!

Great report by Dr Matt Remz on DBS programming for DYT-11 dystonia. It can be quite challenging and perhaps electrophysiology can help guide this process Read it here at the official Dystonia Medical Research Foundation journal frontierspartnerships.org/journals/dysto…

Congrats to 2025's Summer Neuroscience Internship Program students, who presented their final projects today. Celebrating its 10th anniversary this summer, SNIP provides hands-on lab training to undergrads interested in neuroscience careers. Learn more: bit.ly/4kdYPJC

What a great lineup for the next Continuum issue! Look forward to reading
