Deep brain stimulation is being tested as an option for treatment-resistant depression
A multi-center clinical trial is now enrolling patients to test whether surgically implanted electrodes delivering continuous ...
These limitations prevent stimulation during natural movement, such as standing and walking, making at-home or on-the-go treatments impractical. Investigations into how brain activity changes in ...
Many diseases, including Parkinson's disease, can be treated with electrical stimulation from an electrode implanted in the brain. However, the electrodes can produce scarring, which diminishes their ...
OpenMind consortium accelerates creation of neurostimulation devices to sense, record brain activity
University researchers — along with teams at the University of California, San Francisco, Mayo Clinic and Oxford — have come together to establish the OpenMind neural communications consortium, a ...
The Picostim-DyNeuMo research system, made by UK company Amber Therapeutics, is an adaptive neurostimulator seated in the skull with two electrodes placed in targeted brain circuits to sense ...
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared Flow Neuroscience’s at-home electrical stimulation headset for adults with moderate-to-severe depression A trial of 174 people found the device led to ...
A new review article summarizes the wide-ranging, evolving potential of devices that modulate vagus nerve activity.
The vagus nerve carries information between the brain and organs in the chest and abdomen, such as the heart and intestines, ...
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) involves stimulating certain parts of your brain with implanted electrodes. It’s a promising treatment for treatment-resistant OCD. The main treatments for OCD are talk ...
Research investigating the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on individuals with depression and comorbid anxiety reveals a dual impact of this noninvasive form of brain ...
Restoring lost senses or delivering precise brain signals has required invasive hardware and can’t mimic the brain’s natural, distributed activity patterns. This platform shows the brain can learn to ...
