Background/objectives Over the last ten years, an increasing number of authors have used
the theta burst stimulation (TBS) protocol to investigate long-term potentiation (LTP) and …

Activity-dependent synaptic plasticity is the main theoretical framework to explain
mechanisms of learning and memory. Synaptic plasticity can be explored experimentally in …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can non-invasively modulate neural activity in
humans. Despite three decades of research, the spatial extent of the cortical area activated …

Abstract Background Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) consists in
delivering electric current to the brain using an oscillatory pattern that may entrain the …

Neural oscillations in the gamma frequency band have been identified as a fundament for
synaptic plasticity dynamics and their alterations are central in various psychiatric and …

The effects of noninvasive neurostimulation on brain structure and function in chronic
poststroke aphasia are poorly understood. We investigated the effects of intermittent theta …

Background Cortical oscillatory activities play a role in regulating several brain functions in
humans. However, whether motor resonant oscillations (ie β and γ) modulate long-term …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is now widely used as a means of
neuromodulation, but the details of the mechanisms by which rTMS works remain …

Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), an updated pattern of high-frequency repetitive
transcranial magnetic stimulation, is a potential candidate for improving memory. The …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is widely employed as a tool to investigate and
treat brain diseases. However, little is known about the direct effects of TMS on the brain …
