Transcranial static magnetic field stimulation - new non-invasive brain stimulation tool
Recent research has shown that the human motor cortex can be modulated by the application of static magnetic fields through the scalp. Transcranial static magnetic field stimulation (tSMS) has since received significant attention as a new non-invasive ...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation for schizophrenia [PDF]
This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows: To estimate the effects of TMS alone compared with sham TMS or with 'standard management' and any other comparison interventions in reducing psychotic symptoms associated with schizophrenia.

Distinct causal influences of parietal versus frontal areas on human visual cortex: evidence from concurrent TMS-fMRI [PDF]
It has often been proposed that regions of the human parietal and/or frontal lobe may modulate activity in visual cortex, for example, during selective attention or saccade preparation.

Parameterization of transcranial magnetic stimulation
A recent study (Di Lazzaro et al. J Neurophysiol 105: 2150–2156, 2011) describes the findings from a rigorous comparison on the effects of several popular variations of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) protocols. The results demonstrate that excitatory and inhibitory neural networks may be independently modulated based on TMS protocol selection.

Cerebellum to motor cortex paired associative stimulation induces bidirectional STDP-like plasticity in human motor cortex [PDF]
The cerebellum is crucially important for motor control and adaptation. Recent non-invasive brain stimulation studies have indicated the possibility to alter the excitability of the cerebellum and its projections to the contralateral motor cortex, with ...

Working memory is the ability to perform mental operations on information that is stored in a flexible, limited capacity buffer. The ability to manipulate information in working memory is central to many aspects of human cognition, but also declines with

A magnetic stimulation examination of orthographic neighborhood effects in visual word recognition [PDF]
The split-fovea theory proposes that visual word recognition is mediated by the splitting of the foveal image, with letters to the left of fixation projected to the right hemisphere (RH) and letters to the right of fixation projected to the left ...

Repeatability of corticospinal and spinal measures during lengthening and shortening contractions in the human tibialis anterior muscle [PDF]
Elements of the human central nervous system (CNS) constantly oscillate. In addition, there are also methodological factors and changes in muscle mechanics during dynamic muscle contractions that threaten the stability and consistency of transcranial ...
