Hand choice, an unconscious decision, is influenced by target-related information, but if these are non-informative, the choice will be approximately 50-50. In this equilibrium situation, non-target ...

For millions of people with epilepsy and movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease, electrical stimulation of the brain already is widening treatment possibilities. In the future, electrical ...

Scientists at Trinity College Dublin have discovered that electrically stimulating macrophages can “reprogram” them in such a way to reduce inflammation and encourage faster, more effective healing in ...

Researchers are extending their understanding of the effectiveness of electrical fields that are increasingly being used in implants to stimulate and repair damaged nerves. Effective nerve stimulation ...

An international team of scientists led by the University of Surrey has discovered that a form of safe, painless, and non-invasive brain stimulation could help people who are at risk of falling behind ...

A new study suggests electrical stimulation can strengthen muscles affected by long COVID. According to Baylor College of Medicine researchers, long COVID refers to a person that has persistent ...

Researchers at Duke University School of Medicine have found that tapping into the nervous system could help reduce the gut inflammation that drives inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A new study led ...

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...

E-stim therapy involves using mild electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions, which can increase blood flow and promote relaxation, but its effectiveness for RA symptom relief is not ...

A groundbreaking international clinical trial has been testing an implanted adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) device as a treatment therapy for Parkinson’s.
