Thalamo-frontal functional connectivity patterns in Tourette Syndrome: Insights from combined intracranial DBS and EEG recordings.
Tourette Syndrome is a condition that causes people to make sudden movements or sounds, called tics. In this study, we looked at how brain regions communicate in people with Tourette Syndrome. We found unique patterns between the thalamus and cortex linked to symptom severity and tic onset—patterns not seen by looking at brain activity in these regions alone. These insights may help develop more personalised brain stimulation treatments for Tourette Syndrome.
