Thanks to neuroplasticity the brain is consistently reconfiguring itself and adjusting its connections. It can reorganize itself both in structure and how it functions, it modifies itself based on the stimulus that we institute and how we train it.

During this experiment we introduce the transcranial random noise stimulation, and the Gabor patches where the subjects should be able to tell if they recognise the gabor patches or not through different contrast sensitivity, by their answers we can observe if this experiment modifies for better or if it doesn’t bring changes to the subject’s cognitive abilities, although we expect light modifications that enhance the contrast sensibility and improve the visual acuity.

Abstract

Thanks to neuroplasticity the brain is consistently reconfiguring itself and adjusting its connections. It can reorganize itself both in structure and how it functions, it modifies itself based on the stimulus that we institute and how we train it. This allows for a restructuring of brain maps and an improvement in mental function through learning experiences. During this experiment we introduce the transcranial random noise stimulation, and the Gabor patches where the subjects should be able to tell if they recognise the gabor patches or not through different contrast sensitivity, by their answers we can observe if this experiment modifies for better or if it doesn’t bring changes to the subject’s cognitive abilities, although we expect light modifications that enhance the contrast sensibility and improve the visual acuity.

Transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) effects on contrast sensitivity and individuals with low myopia
Thanks to neuroplasticity the brain is consistently reconfiguring itself and adjusting its connections. It can reorganize itself both in structure and how it functions, it modifies itself based on the stimulus that we institute and how we train it. This allows for a restructuring of brain maps and an improvement in mental function through learning experiences. During this experiment we introduce the transcranial random noise stimulation, and the Gabor patches where the subjects should be able to tell if they recognise the gabor patches or not through different contrast sensitivity, by their answers we can observe if this experiment modifies for better or if it doesn’t bring changes to the subject’s cognitive abilities, although we expect light modifications that enhance the contrast sensibility and improve the visual acuity.
