EP 15 - Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) with Special Guest Dr. Martijn Beudel
🎙️ We’re back with the fifteenth episode of Parkinson Weekly, hosted by Prof. Bas Bloem.
In this week’s episode, Bas explores the next generation of neuromodulation with a focus on Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS), joined by special guest Dr. Martijn Beudel. Together, they unpack how aDBS moves beyond traditional continuous stimulation by dynamically responding to a patient’s brain signals in real time. The discussion highlights the potential of this personalised approach to improve symptom control, reduce side effects, and reshape the future of Parkinson’s disease treatment, while also addressing the clinical challenges and research still needed to bring aDBS into wider practice.
