Toronto neurosurgeon Nir Lipsman said the last thing he wants to do is reduce a disease as complex as OCD or major depressive disorder down to a single target or single circuit in the brain.

Understanding mental illness requires understanding psychiatric disorder causality. New brain research explores this in ...

Deep-brain stimulation (DBS) uses electrodes to treat movement disorders and psychiatric conditions by adjusting brain ...

Keith Krehbiel lived with Parkinson’s disease for nearly 25 years before agreeing to try a brain implant that might alleviate ...

The next generation of deep-brain stimulation automatically corrects the precise brain waves that create symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. Can this approach target other conditions?

With OCD, the brain circuits driving concerns, fears and anxieties get stuck, like a car in a certain gear or a record skipping incessantly, Lipsman said. The structures are in overdrive.
