Functional MRI during hippocampal deep brain stimulation in the healthy rat brain [PDF]

, 2015
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a promising treatment for neurological and psychiatric disorders. The mechanism of action and the effects of electrical fields administered to the brain by means of an electrode remain to be elucidated.

Optogenetics and deep brain stimulation neurotechnologies [PDF]

, 2015
Brain neural network is composed of densely packed, intricately wired neurons whose activity patterns ultimately give rise to every behavior, thought, or emotion that we experience. Over the past decade, a novel neurotechnique, optogenetics that combines

Neurosurgery for Psychopaths? An Ethical Analysis [PDF]

, 2016
Recent developments in neuroscience have inspired proposals to perform deep brain stimulation on psychopathic detainees. We contend that these proposals cannot meet important ethical requirements that hold for both medical research and therapy.

Paradoxical augmented relapse in alcohol-dependent rats during deep-brain stimulation in the nucleus accumbens [PDF]

, 2016
Case reports indicate that deep-brain stimulation in the nucleus accumbens may be beneficial to alcohol-dependent patients. The lack of clinical trials and our limited knowledge of deep-brain stimulation call for translational experiments to validate ...
