IIT Bombay study links disrupted brain activity to impaired reward processing in Parkinson’s patients, suggests need for adjunct therapies

IIT Bombay researchers investigated reward processing in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients using EEG, revealing impaired brain activity linked to reduced reward appreciation. The study found that dopamine medication didn't fully restore reward processing, suggesting the need for supplementary treatments like brain stimulation. These findings highlight the importance of addressing non-motor symptoms to improve the quality of life for PD patients.
