Transcranial Temporal Interference Stimulation (tTIS) May Improve Parkinson’s Motor Symptoms

by GLOOM

Photoreal illustration of two interfering electric fields converging at deep brain regions, conveying non-invasive deep stimulation in Parkinson's.

Deep brain stimulation works for Parkinson’s, but it requires implanted electrodes. A 2026 randomized crossover trial by Stalter and colleagues tested whether transcranial temporal interference stimulation — a non-invasive technique designed to reach deep targets without exciting overlying cortex — can move the needle on motor symptoms when aimed at the putamen.1 Research Highlights Transcranial …

Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation for Bipolar Disorder: Effective & Tolerable in Early Studies (2023)

by GLOOM

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) presents a promising frontier for treating bipolar disorder, offering potential alternatives or adjuncts to conventional pharmacotherapy. Emerging evidence suggests that certain non-invasive brain stimulation protocols may help manage symptoms of bipolar disorder. Highlights: Efficacy: Certain NIBS modalities, like anodal tDCS over F3 plus cathodal tDCS over F4, have shown significant improvement …
