You are over 40 years old
You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease based on a specific standard set of diagnostic guidelines called the UK Brain Bank criteria
You experience "freezing of gait" (sudden episodes where your feet feel stuck to the ground and you cannot move), confirmed by a questionnaire and an objective evaluation showing this has happened in the last month
You have already been selected by a specialist medical conference at MUSC to receive a type of brain surgery called Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) targeting a specific area of the brain

Who may not be able to join:

You have a significant walking or movement problem caused by something other than Parkinson's disease (for example, a bone or joint condition)
You are unable to complete a walking test called the "Timed Up and Go" task on your own, without help from another person or a walking aid, when your Parkinson's medication is not active
You cannot have an MRI scan — for example, because you are unable to lie flat, you are pregnant, or you have certain metal implants in your body that are not safe for MRI
You have already had a DBS device fitted that is not compatible with 3 Tesla (3T) MRI scanners (confirm with trial site)
