• Human single-neuron activity is modulated by intracranial theta burst stimulation of the basolateral amygdala (2024, unknown): “…resembling the extracellular currents that normally modulate neuronal activity—this methodology has been used to bidirectionally drive neuronal firing in human temporal cortex ( Youssef et al., 2023 ) and enhance memory specificity for images following stimulation ( Titiz et al., 2017 ).”
• Theta-burst direct electrical stimulation remodels human brain networks (2024, unknown): “It clearly adds to the understanding of the effects, underlying mechanisms and factors that impact on TBS.”
• Why does invasive brain stimulation sometimes improve memory and sometimes impair it? (2024, unknown): “Studies have also tested the effects of current applied at different times relative to behavior and across a range of target areas including both gray and white matter [37,42].”
• Modulating Human Memory via Entrainment of Brain Oscillations. (2019, methodology): “In another study using theta-burst stimulation to enhance memory, Titiz and colleagues [62] performed microstimulation via a 100 μm diameter electrode of the perforant path between the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus.”
