“Broadband Alpha Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation”: Exploring a new biologically calibrated brain stimulation protocol [PDF]
NeuroImage, 2022 Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can be used to study causal contributions of oscillatory brain mechanisms to cognition and behavior. For instance, individual alpha frequency (IAF) tACS was reported to enhance alpha power and impact visuospatial attention performance.

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 ...

Concurrent Electroencephalography Recording During Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2016 Oscillatory brain activities are considered to reflect the basis of rhythmic changes in transmission efficacy across brain networks and are assumed to integrate cognitive neural processes. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) holds the promise to elucidate the causal link between specific frequencies of oscillatory brain activity and ...

Neurosensory Effects of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation
Brain Stimulation, 2014 Electrical brain stimulation can elicit neurosensory side effects that are unrelated to the intended stimulation effects. This presents a challenge when designing studies with blinded control conditions.The aim of this research was to investigate the role of different transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) parameters, i.e.
