Applications of transcranial direct current stimulation for understanding brain function

Highlights • tDCS can modulate membrane potentials, synaptic processes, and functional networks. • Neural oscillations can be modified by tDCS, affecting perception and cognition. • Different tDCS protocols can enhance or disrupt attention, learning, and memory. • Variability in polarity-specific mo...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • tDCS can modulate membrane potentials, synaptic processes, and functional networks. • Neural oscillations can be modified by tDCS, affecting perception and cognition. • Different tDCS protocols can enhance or disrupt attention, learning, and memory. • Variability in polarity-specific modulations may reflect neural coding properties. • tDCS is complementary to, and can be used in parallel with, methods such as TMS.
