Low intensity electrical stimulation to specific brain areas can help to improve short term verbal memory, researchers report.
Researchers show optogenetics can be as good as, if not better than, using electrical stimulation in neuroscience research.
A new study challenges current understanding of how visual attention is focused, as well as the roles of long and short term memory.
Researchers report epidural stimulation helped two people with quadriplegia to improve voluntary hand movements.
Researchers have developed a new wireless brain stimulation device that could revolutionize the way neurological disorders are treated. The device, called WAND, fine tunes treatments by stimulating and recording electrical currents in the brain at the same time.
Electrical stimulation of the hippocampus activates the same receptor complexes as memory recall and learning, a new study reveals.
Stimulating the lateral orbitofrontal cortex improves mood in those suffering from depression, a new study reveals.
Epidural stimulation enabled rats with spinal cord injuries to better control their bladders, a new study reports.
A new study reveals frequency plays a key role in neural activation from electrical stimulation.
Electrocortical stimulation therapy could end the misery of motion sickness, a new study reports.
A surgeon is using electrical stimulation as part of an advanced surgical technique to treat Bell's palsy. Stimulating the patient's damaged facial nerves with an electrical current helps 'jump start' the nerve in order to restore improved facial movement more quickly.
Using electrical fields to simulate slow wave sleep, researchers enhance memory.
