The Future of Non‐Invasive Brain Stimulation in Sleep Medicine

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Non‐invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) methods carry particular appeal as non‐pharmacological approaches to inducing or improving sleep. However, intense research efforts to use transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electrical stimulation (tES) for sleep modulation have not yet delivered evidence‐based NIBS treatments in sleep medicine ...

A neural basis for contagious yawning [PDF]

, 2017
Contagious yawning, in which yawning is triggered involuntarily when we observe another person yawn, is a common form of echophenomena—the automatic imitation of another’s words (echolalia) or actions (echopraxia) [1].

Sleep and Dreams as Reflected by Science Fiction Literature and Films—Anything to Learn From?

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Sleep and dreams are frequent themes in science fiction (Sci‐Fi) literature and films, often used to explore questions about consciousness, reality, technology and the human experience. Sci‐Fi authors and filmmakers utilise the enigmatic nature of sleep and dreams to blur the boundaries between reality and imagination, raising philosophical ...

Migraine generator network and spreading depression dynamics as neuromodulation targets in episodic migraine

, 2013
Migraine is a common disabling headache disorder characterized by recurrent episodes sometimes preceded or accompanied by focal neurological symptoms called aura. The relation between two subtypes, migraine without aura (MWoA) and migraine with aura (MWA)

Transcranial Electrical Neuromodulation Based on the Reciprocity Principle [PDF]

, 2016
A key challenge in multi-electrode transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) or transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is to find a current injection pattern that delivers the necessary current density at a target and minimizes it in the rest of ...

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation of the Temporoparietal Junction in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Results of a Phase‐IIa Randomized, Double‐Blind, Sham‐Controlled Feasibility Study

Autism Research, Volume 18, Issue 9, Page 1861-1876, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Activation of the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) is reduced in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) during social cognitive tasks. Therefore, anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the TPJ may enhance social cognitive abilities in autistic individuals. In a multicenter, randomized, sham‐controlled, double‐blind parallel‐group Phase‐
