Abstract
In a recent study, Zhang, Roy, and colleagues have shown that neurons in the parafascicular (PF) thalamus project to three distinct neural structures in the basal ganglia. The neural circuits identified in the study were associated with specific motor and non-motor symptoms in a Parkinson's disease (PD) mouse model. The findings provide potential actionable therapeutic targets for this disease.
