Modulating Applied Task Performance via Transcranial Electrical Stimulation
Conclusion tES may prove valuable for modulating applied task performance, though research in this area warrants careful consideration of several individual-, context-, and task-related factors that may predict the robustness and directionality of tES effects. Whereas most applied research with tES has administered tDCS, tACS and tRNS have also shown potential to modulate cortical activity and behavior. Even in highly applied and dynamic tasks, such as navigation and driving, tES appears to carry some performance benefits. This is compelling because as tES is slowly incorporated into highly complex real-world environments...

Neural correlates of action recognition and object knowledge in neurodegenerative disease (P6.196)
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that action recognition is supported by a distributed left lateralized functional network that exhibits dissociable roles. In particular, left mid-posterior temporal and inferior parietal areas seem critical for representation of the gestural component of action recognition while frontal inferior regions may support cognitive control requirements common to all 3 tests.Disclosure: Dr. santos has nothing to disclose.
