Deep Brain Stimulation Network

The Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Network aims to extend DBS research and connect DBS specialists across the UK.

Led by Sundus Alusi, Monty Silverdale, Dipankar Nandi and Tom Foltynie, the DBS Network is a forum for DBS neurologists, neurosurgeons, specialist nurses and trainees, to share and disseminate best clinical practice and research. The Network meets throughout the year to discuss national guidelines, service developments, DBS research proposals, complex clinical matters and aims to provide a platform for teaching new DBS developments.
