Modulating excitation/inhibition balance through transcranial electrical stimulation: physiological mechanisms in animal models

Frontiers in Neuroscience
The balance between excitatory and inhibitory (E/I) activity is a fundamental property of neural circuits, ensuring precise information processing and preventing pathological states such as hyperexcitability or network silencing.

Can visual cortex non-invasive brain stimulation improve normal visual function? A systematic review and meta-analysis

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectiveMultiple studies have explored the use of visual cortex non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) to enhance visual function. These studies vary in sample size, outcome measures, and methodology. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analyses to

Transcranial electric stimulation in chronic pain: Effects on quality of life, physical function, activity and clinical status

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transcranial electric stimulation represents a promising non‐invasive neuromodulatory technique targeting maladaptive nociplastic changes in chronic pain (CP) with analgesic effects. However, its impact beyond pain reduction on broader outcomes such as quality of life (QoL) and physical function remains unclear.

Transcranial electric stimulation (tES) during magnetoencephalography (MEG): perspectives and limitations

Brain Stimulation, 2015
s / Brain Stimulation 8 (2015) 428e437 436 Methods: We implanted five adults with adjunctive bilateral EpCS over FP and ML prefrontal cortices. They had failed an average of 5.8 antidepressants prior to implant and were allowed to stay on medications and have changes as needed. All subjects received ongoing clinical assessments at baseline, seven-month

Transcranial electrical stimulation: How can a simple conductor orchestrate complex brain activity?

PLoS Biology, 2023
Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) is one of the oldest and yet least understood forms of brain stimulation. The idea that a weak electrical stimulus, applied outside the head, can meaningfully affect neural activity is often regarded as ...

Theta tACS impairs episodic memory more than tDCS

Scientific Reports, 2023
Episodic memory deficits are a common consequence of aging and are associated with a number of neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease). Given the importance of episodic memory, a great deal of research has investigated how we can improve ...

Transcranial direct current stimulation enhances delayed retention after 5 days of lower‐limb motor skill learning

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the 5 day lower‐limb motor skill learning protocol combining ankle visuomotor practice with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Participants were allocated to motor skill practice with active tDCS over the leg representation of primary motor cortex (SKILL‐STIM), motor skill practice with sham ...

From regulatory mechanisms to cutting‐edge applications: Research progress of ultrasound, electrical, magnetic, and optical stimulation in neural modulation

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 196-219, September 2026.
Abstract In recent years, the clinical treatment and symptom management of neurological disorders have faced significant challenges due to the high complexity of the nervous system's structure and function. Against this backdrop, physical stimulation techniques have emerged as a vital complementary approach to traditional pharmacological treatments and

Transcranial electric stimulation (tES) and NeuroImaging: the state-of-the-art, new insights and prospects in basic and clinical neuroscience [PDF]

NeuroImage, 2016
Transcranial electric stimulation (tES) of the brain has attracted an increased interest in recent years. Yet, despite remarkable research efforts to date, the underlying neurobiological mechanisms of tES' effects are still incompletely understood. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the state-of-the-art in ...
