BACKGROUND: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulatory
technique that delivers low-intensity, direct current to cortical areas facilitating or inhibiting …

Neurophysiological studies have shown in animals that a sudden sound enhanced perceptual
processing of subsequent visual stimuli. In the present study, we explored the possibility …

Therapies for motor recovery after stroke or traumatic brain injury are still not satisfactory. To
date the best approach seems to be the intensive physical therapy. However the results are …

Background. Recovery of motor function after stroke may depend on a balance of activity in
the neural network involving the affected and the unaffected motor cortices. Objective. To …

Seminal studies in monkeys report that the viewing of actions performed by other individuals
activates frontal and parietal cortical areas typically involved in action planning and …

Despite transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is increasingly used in experimental
and clinical settings, its precise mechanisms of action remain largely unknown. At a neuronal …

Crossmodal spatial integration between auditory and visual stimuli is a common phenomenon
in space perception. The principles underlying such integration have been outlined by …

Contemporary strategies to promote motor recovery following stroke focus on repetitive voluntary
movements. Although successful movement relies on efficient sensorimotor integration, …

One of the most effective techniques in the rehabilitation of visual field defects is based on
implementation of oculomotor strategies to compensate for visual field loss. In the present …

… Nadia Bolognini and Tony Ro … impairs spatial orienting to modality-specific visual and
auditory stimuli during a reaction time task given at the end of the rTMS (Bolognini et al., 2009b). …
