Summary

This study is being done to the determine the ability and utility of using the Neuropixels probes in the human brain. A Neuropixels probe will be inserted into and removed from the brain of awake human patients who are undergoing awake Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Temporary implatation of large-scale intracranial electrode.

The Neuropixels probe (imec, Leuven, Belgium) is a new high resolution multi electrode technology that uses custom 130-nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor fabrication with high surface area but low-impedance titanium nitride recordings to produce high site count devices with extreme electrode density in a small package.

DEVICE

brain electrode

Show that Neuropixels can safely and effectively record from large populations of neurons.
