New avenues to facilitate neuroplasticity in the healthy brain: The effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on motor learning and the impact of acute physical exercise on brain derived neurotrophic factor up-regulation KU Leuven
The brain is a fascinating organ that controls every single movement of the human body. More importantly, it has the ability to change and adapt to its own environment. This ability is known as neuroplasticity and it is the key to learning and memory. Therefore, the idea behind this doctoral project is to take advantage of this human plastic brain and manipulate the environment by using innovative non-invasive brain stimulation techniques to ...
