Currents of Hope: how noninvasive brain stimulation is reshaping modern psychiatric care; Adapting to diversity: Integrating variability in brain structure and function into personalized / closed-loop non-invasive brain stimulation for substance use disorders

Colleen Hanlon, PhD & Ghazaleh Soleimani, PhD
Brainsway / University of Minnesota
Mar 28, 2024

In March we will focus on TMS and host Ghazaleh Soleimani and Colleen Hanlon. The talks will talk place on Thursday, March 28th at noon ET – please be aware that this means 5PM CET since Boston already switched to summer time! Ghazaleh Soleimani, PhD, is a postdoctoral fellow in Dr Hamed Ekhtiari’s lab at the University of Minnesota. She is also the executive director of the International Network of tES/TMS for Addiction Medicine (INTAM). She will discuss “Adapting to diversity: Integrating variability in brain structure and function into personalized / closed-loop non-invasive brain stimulation for substance use disorders”. Colleen Hanlon, PhD, currently serves as a Vice President of Medical Affairs for BrainsWay, a company specializing in medical devices for mental health, including TMS. Colleen previously worked at the Medical University of South Carolina and Wake Forest School of Medicine. She received the International Brain Stimulation Early Career Award in 2023. She will discuss “Currents of Hope: how noninvasive brain stimulation is reshaping modern psychiatric care”. As always, we will also get a glimpse at the “Person behind the science”.

Adaptive deep brain stimulation to treat gait disorders in Parkinson's disease; Personalized chronic adaptive deep brain stimulation outperforms conventional stimulation in Parkinson's disease

Doris Wang, MD, PhD & Stephanie Cernera, PhD
University of California, San Francisco, USA
Aug 31, 2023

On Friday, August 31st we will host Stephanie Cernera & Doris Wang! Stephanie Cernera, PhD, is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Starr lab at University of California San Francisco. She will tell us about “Personalized chronic adaptive deep brain stimulation outperforms conventional stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease”. Doris Wang, MD, PhD, is a neurosurgeon and assistant professor at the University of California San Francisco. Apart from her scientific presentation about “Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation to Treat Gait Disorders in Parkinson’s Disease”, she will give us a glimpse at the “Person behind the science”. The talks will be followed by a shared discussion. You can register via talks.stimulatingbrains.org to receive the (free) Zoom link!

Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation: Investigational System Development at the Edge of Clinical Brain Computer Interfacing

Jeffrey Herron
University of Washington
Dec 16, 2021

Over the last few decades, the use of deep brain stimulation (DBS) to improve the treatment of those with neurological movement disorders represents a critical success story in the development of invasive neurotechnology and the promise of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) to improve the lives of those suffering from incurable neurological disorders. In the last decade, investigational devices capable of recording and streaming neural activity from chronically implanted therapeutic electrodes has supercharged research into clinical applications of BCI, enabling in-human studies investigating the use of adaptive stimulation algorithms to further enhance therapeutic outcomes and improve future device performance. In this talk, Dr. Herron will review ongoing clinical research efforts in the field of adaptive DBS systems and algorithms. This will include an overview of DBS in current clinical practice, the development of bidirectional clinical-use research platforms, ongoing algorithm evaluation efforts, a discussion of current adoption barriers to be addressed in future work.
