Amazing book from 1850 by Alfred Smee. “man is made up of a great number of voltaic elements, so arranged as to form one whole”. Human circuit with an extra layer to aggregate impressions from senses. *Way* ahead of his time. Via @matthewcobb 's excellent The idea of the brain.

Nothing against nominating Biden and Harris for persons of the year, but my true heroes are these two.

Just stumbled upon this post from my poster at the @OHBM 2014 conference in Hamburg. I had sneakily pulled a coffeetable over to show Lead-DBS with a normative connectome. This moment is special to me since here I first met @foxmdphd – changed my career & life forever. 🙏🙏

A bit annoyed by people being annoyed by Elon Musk. Let the guy do his thing. He’s not wasting public money. Nay-sayers have not been helpful in the history of discovery, ever. Why does our field feel threatened? This is not a race, it’s a joint endeavor - everyone can take part.

Great success for the team of @AA_Kuhn & @jan_roediger @ChariteBerlin showing non-inferiority for automated DBS programming using StimFit on top of @leaddbs electrode reconstructions in a randomized prospective clinical trial – out @LancetDigitalH ! 🎉🎊💥

Preprint: Modulating the human functional connectome using deep brain stimulation. We scanned 20 PD patients in the fMRI while deep brain stimulation was switched on vs. off, analysed changes of the functional connectome. @neumann_wj @me_julez

Another gem shared w/ me by @c_neudorfer – drawings by Bertrand Luys (the one who first described the subthalamic nucleus). Isn’t that an amazing amount of artistic talent, clarity and beauty?

Thanks so much to @c_neudorfer for digging up this book by Sem-Jacobson from 1968 (!) which shows STN-DBS for PD and Cg25-DBS for Depression were pioneered in Norway, long before they became mainstream. More about this w/ @EspenDietrichs at @stimbrains :

Fantastic work by @ausaf ’s group using DBS electrical stim and @leaddbs reconstructions to map VPM somatotopy. Exact match with the 1979 Hassler data!

Yet another beautiful paper by Clemens Neudorfer – this time on endovascular deep brain stimulation. Setting atlases from @leaddbs and @ComaRecoveryLab among others into context of the vascular system. Great win that Clemens joined our lab a few weeks ago!

First use I am aware of that @leaddbs was used to reconstruct cerebellar electrodes – v interesting case series (N=3) of DBS to the dentate in cerebral palsy by the Starr lab. @iahncajigas et al. in @TheJNS (thanks for sharing @RMarkRichardson )

Happening NOW: See how @c_neudorfer is translating the human transcriptome and combines it with the human connectome to explain variance in clinical improvement following deep brain stimulation surgery for Parkinson’s, OCD and Dystonia. Poster #645

Cool new visualization concept by the Coenen group termed SPECTRE to show cortical connectivity gradients in stereotactic planning software. Match with STN subdivisions calculated by @SiobhanEwert in the DISTAL atlas. Test-retest robust. 👏👏

Finally got to check out the fantastic ex-vivo dMRI dataset by @b_tendler & @fmrib_karla a bit more in detail. Such a fantastic resource – congratulations and 👏🙏🙏 for making it available! Thanks to @FangChengYeh for processing tips (and DSI Studio).

One favorite moment at the #BrainStimConf so far - two med students from India showed me their 3D printed & hand-painted DBS model based on @leaddbs ! Apparently they have a larger model that they’ll show at their poster - @shivani91528083 could you tell us more when&where? 🙏

Amazing resource pushing the frontier of normative connectomes by @MGHMartinos (who else) led by Kawin Setsompop. Had the privilege of testing the connectome since abt half a year and it's of excellent quality! First DBS applications in the pipeline..

Excited about this collaboration with the team at @Baylor @SameerShethMD @ron_gdt @BShofty to the OCD-response tract by @NingfeiL in a blinded fashion. I particularly like the design of the study, I think it could be fruitful to do this more in DBS -🧵
