Enhanced visual perception with occipital transcranial magnetic stimulation
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) over the occipital pole can produce an illusory percept of a light flash (or 'phosphene'), suggesting an excitatory effect. Whereas previous reported effects produced by single-pulse occipital pole TMS are typically disruptive, here we report the first demonstration of a location-specific facilitatory effect on visual perception in humans. Observers perfo...
متن کاملTranscranial direct current stimulation and visual perception.
Membrane potentials and spike sequences represent the basic modes of cerebral information processing. Both can be externally modulated in humans by quite specific techniques: transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). These methods induce reversible circumscribed cortical excitability changes, either excitatory or inhibitory, outlasti...

متن کاملOccipital transcranial magnetic stimulation has an activity-dependent suppressive effect.
The effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) vary depending on the brain state at the stimulation moment. Four mechanisms have been proposed to underlie these effects: (1) virtual lesion--TMS suppresses neural signals; (2) preferential activation of less active neurons--TMS drives up activity in the stimulated area, but active neurons are saturating; (3) noise generation--TMS adds ran...

reconstruction of a cultured hippocampal neuron labeled for phosphorylated FMRP (red), total FMRP (blue), and F-actin using phalloidin (green). Colocalization of FMRP and phosphorylated FMRP is shown in yellow. FMRP is transiently dephosphorylated by PP2A in response to mGluR activation to allow translation of FMRP-bound mRNAs. For more information, see the article by Narayanan et al. in the De...
