Modulation of cortical inhibitory circuits after cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation over the primary motor cortex

AbstractHere we aimed to evaluate whether cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the primary motor cortex (M1) and primary somatosensory cortex (S1) can modulate cortical inhibitory circuits. Sixteen healthy subjects participated in this study. Cathodal tDCS was positioned over...
