Unlocking the Brain’s Language Abilities through Stimulation!

Just like how a skilled pianist can improve their performance by practicing specific finger movements, a study explored whether a form of brain stimulation called continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) can enhance language abilities in individuals with poststroke aphasia. By targeting the right posterior superior temporal gyrus (pSTG), which plays a critical role in semantic […]

Exploring Spontaneous Brain Activity in Healthy Aging

Imagine the brain is a bustling city, with different neighborhoods representing different regions of activity. In this study, scientists used two strategies, fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF) and regional homogeneity (ReHo), to examine how brain activity changes as we age. They recruited 112 healthy individuals across various age groups and found that certain regions, […]
