Cortico-subcortical dynamics in Parkinson’s disease aims to integrate key pathophysiological aspects underlying Parkinson’s disease. The volume offers a broad spectrum of opinions on how chronic dopamine depletion affects cortico-subcortical dynamics, especially how disruptions of the non-dopaminergic systems resulting from chronic dopaminergic degeneration could lead to the functional alterations observed in parkinsonism.
