A study carried out in partnership by researchers from Brazil, the United States, Canada, Italy, Germany and Israel was published in the journal Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation.
The research presents the use and perspectives of new developments in the non-invasive technique used to modulate neural tissue known as Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and its applicationication in neurological diseases, pain relief and motor rehabilitation, which can improve sports performance and restore nervous system functions.
