Microstructural and Functional Plasticity Following Repeated Brain Stimulation During Cognitive Training in Older Adults

Microstructural and functional plasticity following repeated brain stimulation during cognitive training in older adults

The combination of repeated behavioral training with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) holds promise to exert beneficial effects on brain function beyond the trained task. However, little is known about the underlying mechanisms. We performed a monocenter, single-blind randomized, placebo-controlled trial comparing cognitive training to concurrent anodal tDCS (target intervention) with cognitive training to concurrent sham tDCS (con…

AdventHealth Research Institute and NESTRE Health & Performance Announce Collaboration to Advance Neurocognitive Health and Performance Through Cognitive Training

“We are at a pivotal point in our understanding of neuroscience and in particular, neuroplasticity – the ability of neural networks in the brain to change through growth and reorganization. This new research collaboration will allow us to rethink traditional methods and explore new ways to enhance...
