Subthalamic nucleus–language network connectivity predicts dopaminergic modulation of speech function in Parkinson’s disease Open
Speech impediments are a prominent yet understudied symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD). While the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is an established clinical target for treating motor symptoms, these interventions can lead to further worsening o…

Dopaminergic medication normalizes aberrant cognitive control circuit signalling in Parkinson’s disease Open
Dopaminergic medication is widely used to alleviate motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, but these medications also impact cognition with significant variability across patients. It is hypothesized that dopaminergic medication impacts co…

Semantic fluency and processing speed are reduced in non-cognitively impaired participants with Parkinson’s disease Open
Introduction: Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with a range of cognitive deficits. Few studies have carefully examined the subtle impacts of PD on cognition among patients who do not meet formal criteria for MCI or dementia. T…
