In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

With this study, the investigators want to investigate how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects various cognitive and psychiatric symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). In particular, they will examine whether stimulation of the left hemisphere has a different effect than stimulation of the right hemisphere on cognitive and psychiatric symptoms.
