Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation does not affect verbal memory performance in healthy volunteers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction: Invasive vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) improves word recognition memory in patients with epilepsy. Recent studies with transcutaneous VNS (tVNS) have also shown positive effects on various subdomains of cognitive functioning in healthy ...

Noninvasive brain stimulation in stroke rehabilitation [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroRX, 2006
Stroke is a common disorder that produces a major burden to society, largely through long-lasting motor disability in survivors. Recent studies have broadened our understanding of the processes underlying recovery of motor function after stroke. Bilateral motor regions of the brain experience substantial reorganization after stroke, including changes ...

Noninvasive Brain Stimulation and Personal Identity: Ethical Considerations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
As noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) technology advances, these methods may become increasingly capable of influencing complex networks of mental functioning. We suggest that these might include cognitive and affective processes underlying personality

Greater cognitive reserve is related to lower cortical excitability in healthy cognitive aging, but not in early clinical Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between cortico-motor excitability and cognitive reserve (CR) in cognitively unimpaired older adults (CU) and in older adults with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD ...

Neuroplasticity associated with tactile language communication in a deaf-blind subject

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2010
A longstanding debate in cognitive neuroscience pertains to the innate nature of language development and the underlying factors that determine this faculty. We explored the neural correlates associated with language processing in a unique individual who
