About this study

The investigators will conduct a prospective study to evaluate the effects of exercise on Local Field Potential biomarkers detected from the subthalmic nuclues in Parkinson's Disease with the PerceptTM PC neurostimulator. Subsequently, adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation applied in response to low beta peak (L-beta; 13-20Hz) will be performed to evaluate feasibility of whether aDBS can offset the effects of exacerbation of parkinsonism during exercise performance and recovery.
