Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test neurofeedback training in both people with Parkinson's disease and healthy control.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* To demonstrate that EEG based or STN LFP based neurofeedback can help patients with Parkinson's disease to volitionally modulate pathological brain activities measured non-invasively;
* To evaluate the learning effect of the neurofeedback training with multiple training sessions

Patient participants will be asked to receive the research intervention called neurofeedback training for maximal three separate sessions. During the intervention, the participants will also be asked to press a pinch meter as fast as possible in order to measure the reaction time, meanwhile, different type of brain signals will be recorded.

. This will be a within-subject cross-over study contrasting the effect of the neurofeedback training and no training.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease
  • Healthy

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Neurofeedback training

Features related to PD symptoms will be extracted from the brain recordings in real-time and used to drive a visual cursor on a computer screen placed in front of the participant, while the participant will be asked to try to control the cursor by regulating their brain signals.
