Honored for @NHKWORLD_News to document our work on non-invasive brain stimulation, tDCS, HD-tDCS, and cognition.
With brilliant @NeuralEngrLab students Adrian Tomby @Adrian_BME_ & Kyle Donnery @k_donnery.

How to fill a HD electrode.

[Marom Bikson @MaromBikson]

This lecture is for anyone developing or using computational models of how neuromodulation generates electric fields in the body, especially non-invasive electrical brain stimulation (tDCS...).
What makes a model "good"? Despite many approaches, I think there are four general considerations:

"Shared mechanisms of tDCS, tACS, Temporal Interference Stimulation, and ECT."
A technical lecture (2020) on computational models & cellular mechanisms, about how lessons learned studying one non-invasive electrical brain stimulation techniques, informs others.

Nov 25, 2024 lecture to ElectroNeuro Conference: "Optimizing brain targeting with HD-tDCS."
Basic principles of transcranial electrical stimulation current flow, pad vs high-definition (HD) electrodes, directionality, focality vs intensity, sub-gyri targeting...

Celebrate White Cane Day! Incidental Learning in Action. Manny is blind and got his first belt cane at age 6. Before belt cane, he struggled his whole life to use a long cane. We believe independent safety should be easy.

In light of the first patient recruited Sept 5, 2023 for @NIH @nih_nhlbi @NYUNeuromod RECOVER-NEURO trial with tDCS for Long-Covid:
My May 18, 2022 lecture @MountSinaiNYC @ARC_Mount_Sinai on "Neuromodulation and Neurovascular-Modulation for Covid" (given remote as I has just tested positive).

How neuromodulation for pain works?

[Marom Bikson @MaromBikson]

Thrilled to attend & participate in Napa Pain / Neuromodulation The Science (NTS).
I will share a philosophy of "How Neuromodulation for Pain Works" by which I mean how are therapies developed.

Inspiring @NeuralEngrLab neural engineers of all career levels working toward a single new neuromodulation technology. A summer of collaborative R&D.

To predict how transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) could produce a therapeutic "flush" through the brain, we developed multi-scale (cm to nm) multi-physics models @IOPPBio w/ @niranjank_2
2 mA tDCS 👉 2x increase in fluid clearance. How? 🧵

In @brainstimj special Ethico-Legal issue, w/ @NeuroBioEthics we explain "real vs hypothetical problems in neurotechnology ethics."
Real: existing technology & use-cases
Hypothetical: thought experiments (sci-fi).
Both useful but for different reasons.
