Does hemispheric lateralization influence therapeutic effects of transcranial direct current stimulation?

W6: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Workshop

It is an Intensive 1-day course for introducing utilizing transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in an applied format. This technique is a noninvasive brain stimulation that uses direct electrical currents over the head to stimulate specific parts of the brain which modulates neuronal activity. It has strong potentiality in the field of medical and neuroscientific research. Anodal stimu...

Lateralization in emotional speech perception following transcranial direct current stimulation

The degree to which the perception of spoken emotion is lateralized in the brain remains a controversial topic. This work examines hemispheric differences in the perception of emotion in speech by applying tDCS, a neurostimulation protocol, to the T-RES speech emotion rating paradigm. We find several significant effects, including a strong interaction of prosody and neurostimulation for percept...

Induction of Neuroplasticity by Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation

Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive form of brain stimulation similar to transcranial magnetic stimulation, but instead of using magnets, it uses a lowintensity, constant current applied through scalp electrodes. Generally, anodal stimulation induces an increase of cortical excitability, whereas cathodal stimulation decreases cortical excitability, with effects that...
