Non-invasive direct current brain stimulation for depression: 
the evidence behind the hype

Advances in Clinical Neuroscience & Rehabilitation, 2015
There is a major need for novel therapies in depression. One that has been suggested is transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a form of mild, non-invasive electrical brain stimulation tDCS has been used effectively as an intervention for ...

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Effects on the Neural Substrate of Conceptual Representations

Brain Sciences, 2023
The aim of this study was to shed light on the neural substrate of conceptual representations starting from the construct of higher-order convergence zones and trying to evaluate the unitary or non-unitary nature of this construct.

Temporal Interference (TI) Stimulation Boosts Functional Connectivity in Human Motor Cortex: A Comparison Study with Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

Neural Plasticity, 2022
Temporal interference (TI) could stimulate deep motor cortex and induce movement without affecting the overlying cortex in previous mouse studies. However, there is still lack of evidence on potential TI effects in human studies.

Network-level macroscale structural connectivity predicts propagation of transcranial magnetic stimulation

NeuroImage, 2021
Information processing in the brain is mediated by structural white matter pathways and is highly dependent on topological brain properties. Here we combined transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with high-density electroencephalography (EEG) and ...

Perturbation of resting-state network nodes preferentially propagates to structurally rather than functionally connected regions

Scientific Reports, 2021
Combining Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) with electroencephalography (EEG) offers the opportunity to study signal propagation dynamics at high temporal resolution in the human brain.

Improving visuo-motor learning with cerebellar theta burst stimulation: Behavioral and neurophysiological evidence

NeuroImage, 2020
The cerebellum is strongly implicated in learning new motor skills. Theta burst stimulation (TBS), a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, can be used to influence cerebellar activity.

LTP-like cortical plasticity predicts conversion to dementia in patients with memory impairment

Brain Stimulation, 2020
Background: New diagnostic criteria consider Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as a clinico-biological entity identifiable in vivo on the presence of specific patterns of CSF biomarkers. Objective: Here we used transcranial magnetic stimulation to investigate the

Predicting Individual Treatment Response to rTMS for Motor Recovery After Stroke: A Review and the CanStim Perspective

Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2022
BackgroundRehabilitation is critical for reducing stroke-related disability and improving quality-of-life post-stroke. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive neuromodulation technique used as stand-alone or adjunct treatment ...

Impact of multisession 40Hz tACS on hippocampal perfusion in patients with Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with alterations in cortical perfusion that correlate with cognitive impairment. Recently, neural activity in the gamma band has been identified as a driver of arteriolar vasomotion while, on the other ...

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Enhances Exercise Performance: A Mini Review of the Underlying Mechanisms

Frontiers in Neuroergonomics, 2022
Exercise performance (EP) is affected by a combination of factors including physical, physiological, and psychological factors. This includes factors such as peripheral, central, and mental fatigue, external peripheral factors such as pain and ...
