Good news for Parkinson's sufferers. These researchers should review recent papers on Essential Tremor. ET researchers have identified the back of the brain as the ET problem area, the same area identified as part of the Parkinson's problem.

Potential for beneficial cooperation.

Nature research paper: Parkinson’s disease as a somato-cognitive action network disorder

go.nature.com/4aemciV

Targeting the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN) rather than motor regions doubles efficacy of TMS treatments for Parkinson’s disease. Seems that various DBS targets for Parkinson’s are selectively connected to the SCAN rather than effector-specific motor regions.🧪

The highlight of my week was the publication of "Parkinson’s disease as a somato-cognitive action network disorder" in @nature.com. It's a great paper that shows how conceptual changes in fundamental neuroscience - the discovery of SCAN - can improve treatment 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Breakthrough @nature.com study showcases new non-invasive treatment for Parkinson’s Disease that targets the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN) with personalized neuromodulation, for superior outcomes. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Game-changer for PD therapy! Our @Nature study shows targeting the SCAN network with non-invasive brain stimulation doubles efficacy—no surgery needed.

Check out our new work on the relationship between glioma and system-level functional networks! We identify that nearly all gliomas localize within a common brain functional network, Action-Mode Network (AMN) .

I’m very excited about this new work describing the specific cortical-striatal circuits that are altered in Parkinson’s Disease and that should be targeted for optimal PD treatment.

Happy to share a short but super cool video that gives a quick overview of our Nature paper on the somato-cognitive action of netwokr in Parkinson's disease

Non-invasive brain surface stimulation targeting personalized SCAN alleviated symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease. See the videos below.(www.nature.com/articles/s41...)

A recently discovered brain network that links cognition (thinking) and actions may have an important role in Parkinson’s disease and could improve its treatment, according to a study published in Nature: spklr.io/63320DMwOi

Very interesting findings! Gliomas selectively locate within in the Action-mode Network, using glioma network mapping derived from lesion network mapping @foxmdphd.bsky.social

Why are gliomas overwhelmingly found in the action-mode network (AMN)? Could its function be contributing or is it that its function lines up with gene expression & receptor patterns? Either way, it raises the possibility of using inhibitory neuromod of the AMN to treat gliomas. #cancerneuroscience

It’s time to rethink Parkinson’s disease. Our work reframes PD as a disorder of the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN), and shows that normalizing SCAN connectivity represents a shared mechanism across diverse effective therapies.
