Overview

Hagai Bergman is affiliated with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel and has an extensive research portfolio in medicine and neuroscience. Their scholarly output includes contributions across several subfields, notably neurology, cellular and molecular neuroscience, and cognitive neuroscience.

Bergman's research focuses on neurological disorders and treatments with a particular emphasis on mechanisms and treatments related to Parkinson's Disease. Their work also spans neuroscience and neural engineering, neural dynamics and brain function, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, genetic neurodegenerative diseases, and brain-computer interface technologies.

They have published articles in prominent venues, with multiple papers appearing in bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Movement Disorders, Nature Communications, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, and Cell Reports.

  • Recent papers include:
  • "Mapping dysfunctional circuits in the frontal cortex using deep brain stimulation" (2024, Nature Neuroscience)
  • "Modulation of dopamine tone induces frequency shifts in cortico-basal ganglia beta oscillations" (2021, Nature Communications)
  • "Phase-Specific Microstimulation Differentially Modulates Beta Oscillations and Affects Behavior" (2020, Cell Reports)
  • "Basal ganglia beta oscillations during sleep underlie Parkinsonian insomnia" (2020, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences)
  • "Independently together: subthalamic theta and beta opposite roles in predicting Parkinson's tremor" (2020, Brain Communications)

Coauthor collaborations frequently include researchers such as Zvi Israel, David Arkadir, Halen Baker Erdman, Aviv D. Mizrahi-Kliger, and Andrea A. Kühn.

Bergman's book publication record includes a title published by The MIT Press: "The Hidden Life of the Basal Ganglia" (2021).
