University of Florida
Dr. Joshua Wong, MD is a movement disorders neurologist and expert in deep brain stimulation (DBS). The Wong lab applies machine learning techniques to optimize DBS outcomes for patients. His research aims to understand and optimize the factors that influence the efficacy and success of DBS, such as the mechanism of action, the stimulation strategy, and neural biomarkers. He uses advanced imaging techniques such as diffusion tractography and connectomics to understand the network-level effects of DBS. He also investigates novel stimulation strategies and hardware for DBS, such as adaptive and biphasic stimulation, which aim to improve the efficiency and responsiveness of DBS.
