  • UNC owns IP related with FF as the lead inventor.
  • UNC has determined the absence of a conflict of

interest (COI) for the majority of work presented here and has determined a “COI with administrative considerations” for the clinical trials in the Frohlich Lab.

  • FF is the founder, chief scientific officer, and

majority owner of Pulvinar Neuro LLC.

  • Received industry funding from Tal Medical (travel +

research)

  • I frequently travel and give presentations. I typically

receive reimbursement and a stipend.

  • My preferred brain stimulation modality is doppio

espresso.

TARGET ENGAGEMENT

How do we best engage a network target? We need to understand what the effect of stimulation is on the brain in terms of neurophysiology.

NEURONAL MORPHOLOGY AND STATE

Change in somatic membrane voltage:

  • Increases with cable length.
  • Decreases with membrane conductance.
  • Increases with cable diameter.

COGNITIVE ENHANCEMENT

“increased alpha power during creative ideation is among the most consistent findings in neuroscientific research on creativity” (Fink and Benedek, 2010)

ENHANCING CREATIVITY

  • Blinding was successful (p > 0.2).
  • 10 Hz tACS significantly enhances creativity as measured by the Torrance

Test of Creative Thinking (7.45 % ± 3.11 % S.E.M.; F1,16 = 5.14, p = 0.036).

  • No enhancement with 40Hz-tACS..

SUMMARY: TARGETING NETWORK DYNAMICS

  • Oscillations represent fundamental activity structure.
  • tACS ideal to target cortical oscillations.
  • Endogenous network dynamics represent oscillator to

be modulated by weak periodic perturbations.

  • Arnold Tongue: Necessity of individualizing

stimulation frequency?

  • Multistable dynamics: State-dependent stimulation

effects.
