Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on deep brain stimulation (DBS) as a therapeutic intervention for a range of neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions. It covers the application of DBS in movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, and dystonia, as well as its use in psychiatric conditions like schizophrenia and obsessive-compulsive disorder, and for chronic pain management. The scope includes surgical techniques, target selection, neurophysiological monitoring, patient selection and management by interdisciplinary teams, and the role of genetics and neuropsychology in optimizing outcomes. The journal also explores emerging applications, technological advancements, and the underlying neuroscientific mechanisms of DBS, utilizing both clinical practice and pre-clinical research.
