Stimulating somatosensory psychophysics: A double-blind, sham-controlled study of the neurobiological mechanisms of tDCS

The neuromodulation technique transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is thought to produce its effects on behavior by altering cortical excitability. Although the mechanisms underlying the observed effects are thought to rely on the balance of excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission, the...
