A growing body of evidence indicates that the neural dynamics (e.g., oscillations, synchrony) are important in mediating information processing and networking for various functions in the human brain. Most of previous studies on human brain dynamics, however, show correlative relationships between brain functions and patterns of neural dynamics measured by imaging methods such as electroencephalography (EEG), magnetoencephalography (MEG), near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), positron emission tomography (PET) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In contrast, manipulative approaches by non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) have been developed and extensively used. These approaches include transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial electric stimulation (tES) such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), alternating current stimulation (tACS), and random noise stimulation (tRNS), which can directly manipulate neural dynamics in the intact human brain. Although the neural-correlate approach is a strong tool, we think that manipulative approaches have far greater potential to show causal roles of neural dynamics in human brain functions. There have been technical challenges with using manipulative methods together with imaging methods. However, thanks to recent technical developments, it has become possible to use combined methods such as TMS-EEG coregistration. We can now directly measure and manipulate neural dynamics and analyze functional consequences to show causal roles of neural dynamics in various brain functions. Moreover, these combined methods can probe brain excitability, plasticity and cortical networking associated with information processing in the intact human brain. The contributors to this EBook have succeeded in showcasing cutting-edge studies and demonstrate the huge impact of their approaches on many areas in human neuroscience and clinical applications. 606 $aNeurosciences$2bicssc 610 $aCoregistration 610 $aFunctional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI 610 $aNear-infrared spectroscopy NIRS 610 $anon-invasive brain stimulation NIBS 610 $aTMS-EEG 610 $atranscranial alternating current stimulation tACS 610 $atranscranial direct current stimulation tDCS 610 $atranscranial electric stimulation tES 610 $aTranscranial magnetic stimulation TMS 610 $atranscranial random noise stimulation tRNS 615 7$aNeurosciences 700 $aTakashi Hanakawa$4auth$01278730 702 $aRisto Juhani Ilmoniemi$4auth 702 $aKeiichi Kitajo$4auth 702 $aCarlo Miniussi$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136390503321 996 $aManipulative approaches to human brain dynamics$93025099 997 $aUNINA
