Parameterizing Neuronal Spikes to Map the Brain
This image illustrates how electrical signals from brain cells, recorded during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, can be analyzed based on their shape. Distinct action potential shapes may reflect underlying neuronal diversity and anatomical boundaries useful for surgical targeting. This combination of clinical neurophysiology and computational neuroscience has the potential to improve precise placement of DBS electrodes for neuromodulation therapy. Baker et al. 2025
