DOES THE LONGER APPLICATION OF ANODAL-TRANSCRANIAL DIRECT CURRENT STIMULATION INCREASE CORTICOMOTOR EXCITABILITY FURTHER? A PILOT STUDY

Does the Longer Application of Anodal-Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Increase Corticomotor Excitability Further? A Pilot Study

Introduction: Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (a-tDCS) of the primary motor cortex (M1) has been shown to be effective in increasing corticomotor excitability.Methods: We investigated whether longer applications of a-tDCS coincide with greater increases in corticomotor excitability compared to shorter application of a-tDCS.Ten right-

Automated high-throughput quantification of mitotic spindle positioning from DIC movies of Caenorhabditis embryos.

The mitotic spindle is a microtubule-based structure that elongates to accurately segregate chromosomes during anaphase.Its position within the cell also dictates the future cell cleavage plan, thereby determining daughter cell orientation within a tissue or cell fate adoption for polarized cells.Therefore, the mitotic spindle ensures at the same t
