Participate in Learning More About the Physiology of Essential Tremor
Sponsor: Sheng-Han Kuo
Enrolling: Male and Female Patients
Study Length: 1 Days
Clinic Visits: 1
IRB Number: AAAU0162
Contact: Ian Smith: / ias2150@cumc.columbia.edu
Additional Study Information: Participate in learning more about the physiology of Ataxia or Essential Tremor to evaluate how brain networks are affected when frequency-specific, non-invasive, brain stimulation is applied to people with ataxia or essential tremor as compared to healthy control subjects. This study is for adults over the age of 18, diagnosed with Ataxia or Essential Tremor and healthy adults over the age of 40 who would like to participate as controls. Participation involves one clinic visit for 2 to 3 hours, involving EEG measurements from the scalp (non-invasive), wearable sensors on the hand, feet and back to measure postural movement. This will be followed by non-invasive brain stimulation during resting-state and during movement tasks. There is no cost involved for participating in the study. You will receive $75 after completion of the study. Location: 710 W 168th St, New York, NY 10033
