Current Science Review Jan/Feb 2010
Our Current Science Review ("CSR") is designed to summarize the most recent research on DBS-STN to the general public in a comprehensive, yet simplified fashion. The CSR will be updated monthly to keep you informed of DBS-STN advances.
The idea for our CSR is structured after the valuable service that Joe Bruman offered to the Parkinson's community. In 1994, when the Web was in its infancy, Joe began publishing an easy-to-read overview of published science and medical news on Parkinson's disease. He updated it monthly until his death in 2003. We acknowledge Joe's contribution, and our researchers are continuing his tradition for the DBS-STN community. As Joe as elequently states on his site, "CSR items describe current work which may or may NOT prove to be important. Each one is just a piece of the big PD jigsaw puzzle. CSR provides an inkling of where we are, what lies ahead."
