Parkinson's Disease (PD) is primary related to substantia nigra degeneration and, thus, dopamine insuciency. of stimulation related to the interruption of pathological oscillation in the basal ganglia found in PD. Our model represents possible STN neural population with inhibitory and excitatory connections that have patho- logically synchronized oscillations. High-frequency electrical stimulation has interrupted synchronization. something that is also observed in PD patients.
