Falls pose a significant health risk for older adults, with most incidents occurring during dual-task situations-when walking is combined with a secondary cognitive task. Reducing cognitive-motor interference and attentional demands during walking is therefore a key goal in effective fall-prevention and rehabilitation programs. High-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) is an emerging neuromodulation technique that may support this goal by enhancing neural efficiency.

Objective: The supplementary motor area (SMA) demonstrates abnormal beta activity (13-30 Hz) during speech and limb movement tasks in neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease (PD). Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) has demonstrated promising improvements in motor and non-motor functions by entraining endogenous neural oscillations. We conducted an exploratory study on the modulatory effects of personalized beta high-definition (HD)-tACS over the left SMA on speech production and limb movement.

Developmental dyslexia (DD) is the most common form of specific learning disorders (SLDs). From a neurocognitive point of view, dyslexic reading is associated with atypical neurofunctional patterns in the left hemisphere, mainly in the posterior areas linked to lexical access and phonological processing. Nowadays, rehabilitation treatments do not aim to fix the disorder but rather improve adaptive skills.

Introduction: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a disabling condition worldwide, with unsatisfactory treatment outcomes, warranting newer therapies. Brain imaging demonstrates altered functional connectivity among three pain processing networks; salience network (SN), default mode network (DMN) and somatomotor network (SMN). Treatments targeted to change the functional connectivity among these networks may produce clinical benefits.
