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 (

Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation affects decision making [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2012 Neuromodulation by non-invasive brain stimulation such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) has gained relevance among cognitive neuroscience research. This is mainly due to the possibility of inducing reversible facilitatory or inhibitory effects on cognitive processes (Wagner et al., 2007). TMS

Transcranial Alternating Current and Random Noise Stimulation: Possible Mechanisms [PDF]
Neural Plasticity, 2016 Background. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a relatively recent method suited to noninvasively modulate brain oscillations. Technically the method is similar but not identical to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS ...

A minimum effective dose for (transcranial) alternating current stimulation
Brain Stimulation, 2022 Abstract Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a popular method for non-invasive neuromodulation in human research and therapy. However, what constitutes an effective dose in tACS applications is still a matter of investigation and debate.

4-Hz Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation Phase Modulates Hearing [PDF]
Brain Stimulation, 2015 Non-invasive brain stimulation with transcranial alternating currents (tACS) has been shown to entrain slow cortical oscillations and thereby influence various aspects of visual perception. Much less is known about its potential effects on auditory perception.In the present study, we apply a novel variant that enables near-equivalent stimulation of ...

Entrainment of Brain Oscillations by Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 Novel methods for neuronal entrainment [1-4] provide the unique opportunity to modulate perceptually relevant brain oscillations [5, 6] in a frequency-specific manner and to study their functional impact on distinct cognitive functions. Recently, evidence has emerged that tACS (transcranial alternating current stimulation) can modulate cortical ...
