Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Brain stimulation is a method to enhance or disrupt the normal functioning of specific areas of brains using electrical stimulations. The results are then studied to observe the changes in perception or behavior. This procedure is much milder than lesioning (deliberate damage to brains for study) because it does not damage any neurons. In fact, it allows neurons to react to stimulation. This is known as “electrical stimulation of brain”.
