Episode 157 -- Yoland Smith, PhD
Yoland Smith (Yerkes Primate Center, Emory University) discusses how the motor symptoms of Parkinsonism may not connect with our emerging understanding of the the complex interconnectivity of the basal ganglia thalamo-cortical loop. The group discuss anatomical details of the circuit in rodent and primate, and consider other possible network components that might generate the complex pathophysiology of Parkinson\u2019s Disease.
