Our #Spica app is featured in #Natureโ€™s npj Parkinsonโ€™s Disease.

In a great collaboration with Charitรฉ, our platform was used to collect #EMA data, demonstrating how #aDBS can enhance real-world outcomes for people with #ParkinsonsDisease.
A huge congrats to the authors and everyone involved!

My journey with #Parkinsons and #DBS began during my PhD at #Dรผsseldorf. Witnessing DBS's impact firsthand, I saw the challenge of objective, personalized care.

Now, at @virgobit.bsky.social, we're taking on that challenge! Proud to collaborate with #Charitรฉ and Dรผsseldorf on the #RETUNE project.
