Examples

  • Through additional microelectrodes implanted in the primary somatosensory cortex (or S1), the team sent what's known as intracortical microstimulation (ICMS, essentially low-level electrical pulses) to the area of the brain responsible for the sense of touch.

  • Or at least, anatomically correct brain cake with EEG grid*reference markers for intracortical recording or stimulation or ultimately surgery.

  • The brain was abnormally soft (some of the larger intracortical vessels showed plugs of leucocytes possibly indicating an early encephalitis -- Bacillus cold and a Gram-staining bacillus were cultivated from the cerebrospinal fluid.)

  • Short-interval intracortical inhibition (SICI): subthreshold CS followed by suprathreshold TS at intervals of 1-6ms leads to a suppression of

  • Long-interval intracortical inhibition (LICI): if both the CS and TS are suprathreshold but separated by intervals of 50-200ms, then the second MEP is reduced relative to the first (i.e., "inhibition").

  • Short-interval intracortical facilitation (SICF): when a suprathreshold CS is followed by a subthreshold TS, or when both stimuli are roughly equivalent to the motor threshold, at an interval of either 1. 1-1.5ms, 2. 3-2.9ms, or
