This study aims to better understand how certain brain areas (cortex, basal ganglia, thalamus, and cerebellum) are involved in movement disorders like Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. Researchers will record brain electrical activity using non-invasive scalp electrodes or through deep brain stimulation (DBS) devices if you have one that can sense brain activity. These recordings, along with your movement disorder symptoms, will help identify specific brain signals related to these conditions. You might be eligible if you are 18 or older and have a diagnosed movement disorder, but not dementia. The study plans to enroll 100 participants and is ongoing, with brain signal biomarkers measured over 5 years.

Study design

This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 100 participants. It is not specified if the study is randomized or blinded.

What's involved

Recordings will be made from your scalp with a noninvasive electrode, or through your DBS stimulator if you have one. Your prescribed medications and DBS settings may be adjusted within normal clinical limits.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Neural signal biomarkers will be measured at 5 years.
