Pulsed Electrical Stimulation of the Human Eye Enhances Retinal Vessel Reaction to Flickering Light.

abstract：:Successful human social interaction depends on our capacity to understand other people's mental states and to anticipate how they will react to our actions. Despite its importance to the human condition, the exact mechanisms underlying our ability to understand another's actions, feelings, and thoughts are still a mat...
