Biasing neural network dynamics using non-invasive brain stimulation
Recently, non-invasive brain stimulation (NBS) has been discovered as a tool to improve human performance on a wide variety of tasks. Although these observations are highly intriguing, the underlying mechanisms of such enhancements are still poorly understood. Here, we argue that in order to advance our understanding of these mechanisms it is necessary to focus on intrinsic network dynamics in ...
متن کاملMoral Enhancement Using Non-invasive Brain Stimulation
Biomedical enhancement refers to the use of biomedical interventions to improve capacities beyond normal, rather than to treat deficiencies due to diseases. Enhancement can target physical or cognitive capacities, but also complex human behaviors such as morality. However, the complexity of normal moral behavior makes it unlikely that morality is a single capacity that can be deficient or enhan...
متن کاملNon Invasive Brain Stimulation by Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): Principles and Applications
Magnetic brain stimulation used as a method of psychological interventions in the treatment of diseases. This method functions used in the treatment of clinical disorder such as speech and movement disorders caused by stroke, tinnitus, Parkinson's disease, nervous tics. Applications in the field of psychological therapy, it is possible to stimulate specific brain area involved in certain mental...
متن کامل“Non-invasive” brain stimulation is not non-invasive
INTRODUCTION The functions of the healthy brain can be studied in two main ways. Firstly, the changes in the brain’s state can be measured using techniques such as EEG or functional MRI. Secondly, the activity of the brain can be disrupted through the use of brain stimulation. The famous experiments of Wilder Penfield and colleagues in the 1950s showed the power of brain stimulation in people w...
متن کاملNon-invasive Functional Brain Mapping Using Registered Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
We describe a method for mapping the functional regions of the brain using a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device. This device, when placed on a subject's scalp, stimulates the underlying neurons by generating focused magnetic eld pulses. A brain mapping is then generated by measuring responses of di erent motor and sensory functions to this stimulation. The key process in generating ...
