Overview

Lars Timmermann is affiliated with Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf in Germany. Their research focuses extensively on neurology with a particular emphasis on Parkinson's disease and related neurological disorders. Their work spans several intersecting fields, including medicine and neuroscience, with a specific concentration on subfields such as neurology, cognitive neuroscience, cellular and molecular neuroscience, radiology, nuclear medicine and imaging, as well as psychiatry and mental health.

The primary topics covered in their research include:

  • Parkinson's Disease Mechanisms and Treatments
  • Neurological disorders and treatments
  • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Studies
  • Botulinum Toxin and Related Neurological Disorders
  • Functional Brain Connectivity Studies
  • Genetic Neurodegenerative Diseases
  • Advanced Neuroimaging Techniques and Applications

Some of Lars Timmermann's recent papers illustrate their focus on Parkinson's disease from clinical, imaging, and mechanistic perspectives. These publications include:

  • Levodopa Dose Equivalency in Parkinson's Disease: Updated Systematic Review and Proposals, 2023, Movement Disorders
  • Network degeneration in Parkinson's disease: multimodal imaging of nigro-striato-cortical dysfunction, 2020, Brain
  • The Parkinson disease pain classification system: results from an international mechanism-based classification approach, 2020, Pain
  • The default mode network and cognition in Parkinson's disease: A multimodal resting-state network approach, 2021, Human Brain Mapping
  • GBA Variants in Parkinson's Disease: Clinical, Metabolomic, and Multimodal Neuroimaging Phenotypes, 2020, Movement Disorders

The venues where this research is most frequently published include:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • npj Parkinson's Disease
  • Movement Disorders
