Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) Mechanisms and Protocols [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Perception, cognition and consciousness can be modulated as a function of oscillating neural activity, while ongoing neuronal dynamics are influenced by synaptic activity and membrane potential. Consequently, transcranial alternating current stimulation (

Phase Dependency of the Human Primary Motor Cortex and Cholinergic Inhibition Cancelation During Beta tACS [PDF]

Cerebral Cortex, 2016
The human motor cortex has a tendency to resonant activity at about 20 Hz so stimulation should more readily entrain neuronal populations at this frequency.

Enhanced creative thinking performance: the role of alpha frequency transcranial alternating current stimulation in the parieto-occipital region [PDF]

BMC Psychology
Background Previous research has demonstrated a link between creative thinking and alpha oscillations, with individuals exhibiting stronger fronto-parietal alpha synchronization during creative tasks. Effective creative thinking is thought to rely on the

Effects of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation and Neurofeedback on Alpha (EEG) Dynamics: A Review

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) and neurofeedback (NFB) are two different types of non-invasive neuromodulation techniques, which can modulate brain activity and improve brain functioning. In this review, we compared the current state
