CURRENT DYSTONIA RESEARCH INVESTIGATIONS

The Dystonia Medical Research Foundation (DMRF) prides itself on a long history
of supporting and stimulating dystonia research

Neuroanatomical Isolation of Networks in Dystonia through Analysis of Causal
Brain Lesiona

The goal of this study is to reveal the anatomy of dystonia by analyzing causal
links between symptoms and brain structures affected by lesions. This will
ultimately identify targets for new brain stimulation methods.
Daniel Corp, PhDDeakin University (Australia)

Developing High-Throughput Assays to Enable Drug Development for DYT1 Dystonia

This project will use advanced molecular methods to develop new pharmacological
approaches that disrupt the cellular cascade leading to neuronal dysfunction
with the aim to select specific compounds with drug-like properties that may
potentially be developed into dystonia drugs.
Christian Schlieker, PhDYale University (USA)

Theta Burst Transcranial Focused Ultrasound as a Novel Treatment for Cervical
Dystonia

This project aims to explore the effects of a novel non-invasive brain
stimulation technique that has the potential to be a safer, less costly, and
more accessible alternative to deep brain stimulation.
Jean-Francois Nankoo, PhDUniversity Health Network (Canada)

The Role of Basal Ganglia Pathways Engaged in Skilled Forelimb Movement in a
Mouse Model of DYT1 Dystonia

The aim of the project is to quantify and manipulate the brain activity
underlying a dystonic forelimb movement in mice. The results should facilitate
targeting specific neuronal populations of the direct basal ganglia to produce
more efficient therapies.
Filipa França de Barros, PhDChampalimaud Foundation (Portugal)

Spike-Triggered Adaptive Closed-Loop Cerebellar Deep Brain Stimulation for
Dystonia

Mahlon DeLong Young Investigator Award Dr. Kim will test the hypothesis that the
unique pathophysiological cerebellar neural signals in dystonia can serve as
robust biomarkers for triggering an adaptable closed-loop deep brain stimulation
response to restore movement with high precision.
Linda Kim, PhDBaylor University School of Medicine (USA)
