Closed loop deep brain stimulation enhances cognitive control

We present a series of experiments demonstrating enhancement of cognitive control in humans. First, we will show results from chronic striatal DBS patients, where stimulation enhances control and pre-frontal theta oscillations associated with control. Second, we will present results from the TRANSFORM DBS closed-loop stimulation program.
