A treatment that works to stimulate the brain using weak magnetic waves effectively eased symptoms in a mouse model of Parkinson’s disease, a new study reports.
Researchers hope to start a small-scale study soon testing this treatment in people.
“The technology is proven and it’s harmless and we want to see if we can duplicate the same results in humans,” Changiz Taghibiglou, PhD, a professor at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada, and co-author of the study, said in a university news story.
