Using Invasive and Noninvasive Brain Stimulation to Treat Neurological Disease
Dr. Fox’s research focuses on the development of new and improved treatments for brain disease based on understanding brain networks and the effects of brain stimulation. He uses brain network imaging tools such as resting state functional connectivity MRI to understand how brain damages causes symptoms and how brain stimulation leads to symptom relief. Clinically, Dr. Fox specializes in the use of both invasive and noninvasive brain stimulation for the treatment of brain disease. His practice includes deep brain stimulation (DBS) for the treatment of Parkinson’s Disease, essential tremor, and dystonia as well as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for treatment of medication-refractory depression.
