Effects of weak electrical currents on brain and neuronal function were first described decades
ago. Recently, DC polarization of the brain was reintroduced as a noninvasive technique …

Plasticity is an intrinsic property of the human brain and represents evolution's invention to
enable the nervous system to escape the restrictions of its own genome and thus adapt to …

These guidelines provide an up-date of previous IFCN report on “Non-invasive electrical and
magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord and roots: basic principles and procedures for …

Biomarkers have transformed modern medicine but remain largely elusive in psychiatry,
partly because there is a weak correspondence between diagnostic labels and their …

We applied trains of focal, rapid-rate transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the motor
cortex of 14 healthy volunteers with recording of the EMG from the contralateral abductor …

Covertly directing visual attention toward a spatial location in the absence of visual stimulation
enhances future visual processing at the attended position. The neuronal correlates of …

BACKGROUND: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulatory
technique that delivers low-intensity, direct current to cortical areas facilitating or inhibiting …

Previous studies have claimed that weak transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) induces
persisting excitability changes in the human motor cortex that can be more pronounced …
