Abstract To investigate the effects of central thalamic deep brain stimulation (CT/DBS) on behavior and frontal cortical function, we conducted experiments in an awake, behaving macaque monkey performing tasks that required sustained attention and working memory. Results of this preliminary study revealed that CT/DBS can lead to an improvement, a decrement, a mixed or have no effect on behavior.
