About
Lennart Stieglitz is a leading figure in the field of neuromodulation and functional neurosurgery, with a particular focus on deep brain stimulation (DBS) for complex neurological disorders. His research centers on optimizing DBS targeting and stimulation parameters to maximize therapeutic benefit while minimizing side effects. In a landmark 2024 single-case study, Stieglitz demonstrated that directional DBS of the centromedian thalamic nucleus can significantly reduce DBS-induced ataxia and dysarthria in a patient with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, a severe form of drug-resistant epilepsy. This work highlights his commitment to refining neurostimulation strategies for challenging patient populations. With over 2 citations already for this recent publication, his contributions are gaining rapid recognition. Stieglitz’s innovative approach to robotic-assisted implantation and his focus on personalized stimulation parameters are paving the way for safer, more effective DBS therapies. His research is essential reading for clinicians and scientists working to expand the therapeutic horizons of neuromodulation.
