Deep brain stimulation is a powerful neurostimulation technique that proved its efficacy in treating a group of neurological diseases. Several scientific works tried to understand the mechanism of action of deep brain stimulation. Wang et al. ( J Neurosci 38: 4556–4568, 2018) demonstrated new evidence on the role of interregional neuro-oscillatory coherence as a promising model to explain mechanism the of deep brain stimulation.
