I found the information in this article particularly useful. I was interested in researching movement of the human body, and I found it interesting that something like brain stimulation through electric currents could be used to treat diseases. I had not considered such a treatment method before, but the information provided on this topic was still easy to understand and informative. I feel that I understand this treatment method much better after this article.

I really enjoyed reading the article, about brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders. It was very informative and well structured explaining how DBS can help with symptoms of Parkinson's disease and dystonia by targeting areas in the brain. I liked that they included research findings and results from trials to support their analysis. To make it even better they could consider adding stories or case studies to show how DBS has made a difference, in peoples lives.
