Prefrontal cortex regulates burst firing and transmitter release in rat mesolimbic dopamine neurons studied in vivo.

abstract：:Transcranial pulsed current stimulation (tPCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that employs weak, pulsed current at different frequency ranges, inducing electrical currents that reach cortical and subcortical structures. Very little is known about its effects on brain oscillations and functional connecti...
