Why does ultrasound change brain function? The cellular and molecular mechanisms of neuromodulation by transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS)

Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) is as a major non-invasive neuromodulator used for experimental (Folloni et al., 2019; Yaakub et al, 2023) and therapeutic (Jeong et al., 2021; Lee et al., 2022) purposes. Read more

How can we use transcranial ultrasound brain stimulation to restore cellular function in Alzheimer’s disease?

A key feature of Alzheimer’s disease – the leading form of dementia - is diminished neural activity in various brain regions, including those important for memory function such as the hippocampus (Herholz et al., 2007; O’Brien et al., 2010). Read more
