Addictive behaviour is shaped by the dynamic interaction of implicit, bottom-up and explicit, top-down cognitive processes. In alcohol use disorder (AUD), implicit alcohol-related associations have been shown to predict increased subsequent alcohol c...
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether dual transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may enhance the efficacy of exoskeleton robotic training on upper limb motor functions in patients with chronic stroke.

OBJECTIVE: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique used to generate conduction currents in the head and disrupt brain functions. To rapidly evaluate the tDCS-induced current density in near real-ti...
CONTEXT: Motor deficits are among the most common consequences of incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). These impairments can affect patients' levels of functioning and quality of life. Combined robotic therapy and non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS...
This study investigates whether simultaneous high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) enhances the effects of robot-assisted gait training in stroke patients. Twenty-four participants were randomly allocated to either the rob...

BACKGROUND: Delivering HD-tDCS on individual motor hotspot with optimal electric fields could overcome challenges of stroke heterogeneity, potentially facilitating neural activation and improving motor function for stroke survivors. However, the inte...
AIM: To investigate oscillatory networks in bipolar depression, effects of a home-based tDCS treatment protocol, and potential predictors of clinical response.
BACKGROUND: For stroke patients, a therapeutic approach named Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) was applied and it has gained attention. This NIBS approach enhances the neuroplasticity and facilitates in functional Stroke Rehabilitation (SR) thro...
