Specifically, what biophysical and network mechanisms allow for weak electric fields to strongly influence neuronal activity and function? How can strong and weak fields induce meaningful changes in CNS function? How do abnormal endogenous electric fields contribute to pathophysiology? Topics included in the review range from the role of field effects in cortical oscillations, transcranial electrical stimulation, deep brain stimulation, modelling of field effects, and the role of field effects in neurological diseases such as epilepsy, hemifacial spasm, trigeminal neuralgia, and multiple sclerosis. The format of each (<1000 word) mini-review will begin by posing a question, problem, or challenge. The author(s) will provide a brief review of the literature and introduce essential concepts. Data regarding the outstanding question is presented, analysed, and issues of contention discussed thoroughly. The author should offer the reader an answer to the posed question if possible, and offer suggestions for future experiments to address outstanding issues.NeurologyHILCCMedicineHILCCHealth & Biological SciencesHILCCTranscranial Magnetic StimulationephapticSystems neurosciencebrain oscillationtranscranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)stimulationNeurologyMedicineHealth & Biological SciencesMarom Biksonauth1367179Bikson MaromWeiss Shennan AibelPQKBUkMaJRU9910137239503321Open questions on the mechanisms of neuromodulation with applied and endogenous electric fields3389898UNINA
