Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Voltage fluctuation as a result of brain activity will be recorded into the computer using an EEG device.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with Parkinson's disease may have gait disturbances including freezing of gait. Visual and auditory stimuli may improve gait. Investigators will analyze brain wave during walking while giving the subject different stimuli.

The voltage fluctuation (in hundreds of microvolts) will be recorded using the EEG cap and amplifier into a computer.
