A pilot study from Karolinska Institutet shows that immunotherapy may enable the stimulation of egg maturation in women with autoimmune POI (premature ovarian insufficiency)—a condition that usually leads to infertility. Three out of 10 women gave birth to healthy babies followin

A new randomized clinical trial from investigators at Mass General Brigham's Neuroscience Institute and Department of Psychiatry suggests that using personalized brain imaging to guide transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) may improve outcomes for people with treatment-resistan

To treat or manage various heart, gastrointestinal and neurological conditions, including arrhythmias, heart block, gastroparesis, epilepsy and some nerve injuries, doctors rely on a technique known as electrical stimulation. Electrical stimulation entails the delivery of small e

Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna and ETH Zurich have developed a rehabilitation platform for people suffering from the long-term effects of a stroke that combines virtual reality with targeted sensory nerve stimulation. In a randomized feasibility clinical study wi

Mayo Clinic researchers have created a detailed map of the pulvinar, a deep brain region that could help doctors more precisely target brain stimulation therapies for people with drug-resistant epilepsy.

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have found that patients with Parkinson's disease undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) show little to no Lewy pathology in the prefrontal cortex at the time of their DBS surgery, despite often having longstanding, clin

For several years now, sleep research has been focusing intensively on the question of whether targeted auditory stimulation during sleep can improve the consolidation of new memories. A research team in Freiburg led by the neuropsychologists Prof. Dr. Monika Schönauer and Dr. No

Prefrontal transcranial pulse stimulation is associated with antidepressant effects, according to a study published online July 6 in JAMA Network Open.

Despite decades of advances in mental health care, depression remains one of the world's most disabling conditions. Many people with major depressive disorder (MDD) fail to find lasting relief from antidepressants or psychological therapies. Studies indicate that the global burde

The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) have developed a new generation of wireless piezoelectric microdevices capable of electrically stimulating living cells at an individual level. The study, recently publis
