Hold your horses: impulsivity, deep brain stimulation, and medication in parkinsonism
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus markedly improves the motor
symptoms of Parkinson's disease, but causes cognitive side effects such as impulsivity. We …

[HTML][HTML] Thinking, walking, talking: integratory motor and cognitive brain function
In this article, we argue that motor and cognitive processes are functionally related and most
likely share a similar evolutionary history. This is supported by clinical and neural data …

Freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease is associated with functional decoupling between the cognitive control network and the basal ganglia
Recent neuroimaging evidence has led to the proposal that freezing of gait in Parkinson's
disease is due to dysfunctional interactions between frontoparietal cortical regions and …
