Differential effects of motor cortical excitability and plasticity in young and old individuals: a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) study

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Aging is associated with changes in the motor system that, over time, can lead to functional impairments and contribute negatively to the ability to recover after brain damage.

Multiple sessions of transcranial direct current stimulation to the intact hemisphere improves visual function after unilateral ablation of visual cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Damage to cerebral systems is frequently followed by the emergence of compensatory mechanisms, which serve to reduce the effects of brain damage and allow recovery of function. Intrinsic recovery, however, is rarely complete.

Brain Electrical Stimulation for Animal Navigation [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Biomedical Engineering, 11(1), pp. 83-100, 2018
The brain stimulation and its widespread use is one of the most important subjects in studies of neurophysiology. In brain electrical stimulation methods, following the surgery and electrode implantation, electrodes send electrical impulses to the specific targets in the brain.

Band power modulation through intracranial EEG stimulation and its cross-session consistency [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neural Engineering, 17-054001 (2020), 2020
Background: Direct electrical stimulation of the brain through intracranial electrodes is currently used to probe the epileptic brain as part of pre-surgical evaluation, and it is also being considered for therapeutic treatments through neuromodulation.

Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques can modulate cognitive processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Recent methods that allow a noninvasive modulation of brain activity are able to modulate human cognitive behavior. Among these methods are transcranial electric stimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation that both come in multiple variants.

Deep Brain Stimulation

open access: yesThe Neurologist, 2007
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) for the treatment of neurologic diseases has markedly increased in popularity over the past 15 years. This review primarily focuses on movement disorder applications and efficacy of DBS, but also briefly reviews other promising new and old uses of DBS.A multidisciplinary team consisting of a movement disorders neurologist ...

Study protocol of transcranial electrical stimulation at alpha frequency applied during rehabilitation: A randomized controlled trial in chronic stroke patients with visuospatial neglect

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2022
Background A frequent post stroke disorder in lateralized attention is visuospatial neglect (VSN). As VSN has a strong negative impact on recovery in general and independence during daily life, optimal treatment is deemed urgent.

Brain stimulation and memory [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2015
This scientific commentary refers to ‘Visual-spatial memory may be enhanced with theta burst deep brain stimulation of the fornix: a preliminary investigation with four cases’, by Miller et al. (doi:10.1093/brain/awv095). Loss of memory is one of the most devastating afflictions of the human condition.

Effects of electrical and optogenetic deep brain stimulation on synchronized oscillatory activity in Parkinsonian basal ganglia [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Trans Neural Syst Rehabil Eng 25:2188-2195, 2017, 2017
Conventional deep brain stimulation (DBS) of basal ganglia uses high-frequency regular electrical pulses to treat Parkinsonian motor symptoms and has a series of limitations. Relatively new and not yet clinically tested optogenetic stimulation is an effective experimental stimulation technique to affect pathological network dynamics.

Effect of neurostimulation on cognition and mood in refractory epilepsy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Epilepsy is a common, debilitating neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. Mood disorders and cognitive deficits are common comorbidities in epilepsy that, like seizures, profoundly influence quality of life and can be difficult to ...
