Improving Real-Time Lower Limb Motor Imagery Detection Using tDCS and an Exoskeleton.

abstract：:Iron and calcium share the common feature of being essential for normal neuronal function. Iron is required for mitochondrial function, synaptic plasticity, and the development of cognitive functions whereas cellular calcium signals mediate neurotransmitter exocytosis, axonal growth and synaptic plasticity, and contro...
