de Hemptinne Laboratory

Led by Dr. Coralie de Hemptinne, the de Hemptinne Lab aims to understand the neurophysiology underlying movement disorders including Parkinson’s disease, isolated dystonia, and essential tremor, and to develop new neuromodulation strategies for these disorders.

To do so, we perform intraoperative and chronic recordings of neural activity in the basal ganglia in patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy. We seek to find markers of motor and non-motor signs in movement disorders and explore the effects of DBS on these oscillatory patterns.
