Decoding Cognitive States under Varying Difficulty Levels

Ping-Keng Jao

Understanding cognitive states of human under different difficulty levels is useful in improving human-human and human-machine interactions. For example, a crucial factor in designing games is maintaining the engagement of players. An ideal scenario would ...

Cognitive epigenetic priming: leveraging histone acetylation for memory amelioration

Johannes Gräff, Allison Marie Burns

Multiple studies have found that increasing histone acetylation by means of histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) treatment can ameliorate memory and rescue cognitive impairments, but their mode of action is not fully understood. In particular, it is uncle ...

Microstructured thin-film electrode technology enables proof of concept of scalable, soft auditory brainstem implants

Stéphanie Lacour, Florian Dylan Fallegger, Nicolas Vachicouras, Valentina Marie Paggi, Christina Myra Tringides, Jennifer Mary Adrienne Alice Macron

Auditory brainstem implants (ABIs) provide sound awareness to deaf individuals who are not candidates for the cochlear implant. The ABI electrode array rests on the surface of the cochlear nucleus (CN) in the brainstem and delivers multichannel electrical ...

Neurofeedback training with a low-priced EEG device leads to faster alpha enhancement but shows no effect on cognitive performance: A single-blind, sham-feedback study

Andreas Sonderegger, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues

Introduction Findings of recent studies indicate that it is possible to enhance cognitive capacities of healthy individuals by means of individual upper alpha neurofeedback training (NFT). Although these results are promising, most of this research was con ...

Cognitive Enhancers (Nootropics). Part 2: Drugs Interacting with Enzymes

Andrea Pfeifer

Cognitive enhancers (nootropics) are drugs to treat cognition deficits in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, stroke, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or aging. Cognition refers to a capacity for information processing, app ...

Facilitation of AMPA receptor synaptic delivery as a molecular mechanism for cognitive enhancement

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Cell adhesion molecules and downstream growth factor-dependent signaling are critical for brain development and synaptic plasticity, and they have been linked to cognitive function in adult animals. We have previously developed a mimetic peptide (FGL) from ...

Bodily Ownership : Tactile, Visual and Motor Mechanisms

Sebastian Dieguez Falcon

How do we know that our body and its parts belong to us? Observations from neurological syndromes and recent experiments in the cognitive neurosciences suggest that the sense of bodily ownership is a crucial component underlying self-consciousness in human ...

Mental imagery of self-location during spontaneous and active self-other interactions: an electrical neuroimaging study

Olaf Blanke

Substantial data from the cognitive neurosciences point to the importance of bodily processing for the development of a comprehensive theory of the self. A key aspect of the bodily self is self-location, the experience that the self is localized at a speci ...
