Mgr. Martin Marko, PhD. (Institute of Normal and Pathological Physiology, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava):
Transcranial electrical stimulation of the brain for cognitive enhancement
Abstract:
The presentation provides a short introduction to transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) as a neuromodulation technique for cognitive enhancement. In the seminar, we will introduce several theoretical and methodological aspects of tES in behavioral research as well as our recent empirical findings indicating that tES of the left (pre)frontal and perisylvian brain regions can be used to modulate and enhance lexical-semantic cognition in healthy adults.
