Unlocking the Brain's Potential: The Promise and Process of Deep Brain Stimulation
The human brain, a marvel of complexity, oversees every facet of our existence—from our movements and judgments to our emotions and personality. Its intricate network, involving approximately a hundred billion neurons, has long been a subject of fascination and challenge for scientists and clinicians alike. Recent advances in neuroscience and neurosurgery have begun to harness this complexity, offering new hope for individuals with movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease through a groundbreaking technique known as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS).
