An ultrasound device that can precisely stimulate areas deep in the brain without surgery has been developed by researchers from UCL and the University of Oxford, opening up new possibilities for ...

Researchers have flipped the script on the usual approach to pain relief in a new study, demonstrating that a short course of non-invasive brain stimulation before a painful event such as surgery can ...

New research shows non-invasive sound wave therapy can directly target deep brain regions, significantly reducing depression, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms. Patients suffering from depression, anxiety ...

Introduction Mental disorders affect nearly one billion people worldwide, posing major challenges to public health. While conventional treatments like psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy are effective ...

According to a study by MIT, new magnetic nanodiscs could offer a much less invasive way to stimulate specific brain regions. This advancement could lead to stimulation treatments that do not require ...

Inducing acute stress reliably under controlled conditions remains a major challenge in scientific research. Finding paradigms that elicit stress reliably and remain ecologically valid is difficult.

A decade after scientists in The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT first began testing whether sensory stimulation of the brain's 40Hz "gamma" frequency rhythms could treat Alzheimer's ...
