Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have uncovered the first direct evidence that deep brain stimulation (DBS) can remodel white matter pathways in the brain and alter ...

Researchers have uncovered important insights that could improve how mental health conditions are treated with brain stimulation therapy -- a treatment where electrical signals are used to stimulate ...

The "Digital Twin" concept, a virtual, high-fidelity representation of a physical system, is transforming engineering and is now gaining significant ...

Deep brain stimulation can significantly reduce depressive symptoms in some individuals. Knowing what to expect before and after the procedure may help you determine if it’s right for you. Deep brain ...

A weeklong, high-intensity version of TMS may work nearly as well as the standard six-week treatment for depression. In a UCLA study, patients who received five sessions a day for five days ...

An early-stage clinical trial has shown that deep brain stimulation (DBS) applied to the cerebellum may aid the recovery of upper limb function after stroke. Researchers studied 12 people with ...

A peer-reviewed paper published in Frontiers in Psychology proposes that consciousness is not simply a byproduct of brain activity but instead acts as a top-down force that shapes neural processes.

Scientists at EPFL have developed an innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to significantly improve visual function in stroke patients who have suffered vision loss following a stroke.

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) may be helpful in severe cases of tardive dyskinesia that doesn’t respond to other treatments. Tardive dyskinesia (TD) causes involuntary movements of the tongue, neck, ...
