Physiology of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

The Journal of ECT, 2018
Abstract Direct current stimulation is a neuromodulatory noninvasive brain stimulation tool, which was first introduced in animal and human experiments in the 1950s, and added to the standard arsenal of methods to alter brain physiology as well as psychological, motor, and behavioral processes and clinical symptoms in neurological and ...

Exploring the Differential Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation: A Comparative Analysis of Motor Cortex and Cerebellar Stimulation

Heliyon
Background: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique. Constant electric current is passed through the patient's scalp with the aim of modulating cortical excitability.

Cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Applied over Multiple Days Does Not Enhance Motor Learning of a Complex Overhand Throwing Task in Young Adults

Bioengineering, 2023
Cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) enhances motor skill and learning in relatively simple motor tasks, but it is unclear if c-tDCS can improve motor performance in complex motor tasks. The purpose of this study was to determine the

Enhancing Interactivity with Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation [PDF]

Companion Publication of the 21st International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces, 2016
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive type of neural stimulation known for modulation of cortical excitability leading to positive effects on working memory and attention. The availability of low-cost and consumer grade tDCS has democratized access to such devices allowing us to explore its applicability to HCI. We review the
