Functional brain network changes associated with maintenance of cognitive function in multiple sclerosis.

abstract：:Working memory (WM) is a fundamental cognitive ability to support complex thought, but it is limited in capacity. WM training has shown the potential benefit for those in need of a higher WM ability. Many studies have shown the potential of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to transiently enhance WM perfo...
