   Electrical brain stimulation. Chronic subcortical electrode implant in a laboratory rat used to deliver electrical stimulation to the brain. Electrical brain stimulation ( EBS ), also referred to as focal brain stimulation ( FBS ), is a form of electrotherapy used as a technique in research and clinical neurobiology to stimulate a neuron or ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_magnetic...

   Transcranial magnetic stimulation ( TMS) is a noninvasive form of brain stimulation in which a changing magnetic field is used to induce an electric current at a specific area of the brain through electromagnetic induction. An electric pulse generator, or stimulator, is connected to a magnetic coil connected to the scalp.

5. Brain stimulation reward - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_stimulation_reward

   Brain stimulation reward ( BSR) is a pleasurable phenomenon elicited via direct stimulation of specific brain regions, originally discovered by James Olds and Peter Milner. BSR can serve as a robust operant reinforcer. Targeted stimulation activates the reward system circuitry and establishes response habits similar to those established by ...

   The neurobiological effects of physical exercise involve possible interrelated effects on brain structure, brain function, and cognition. Research in humans has demonstrated that consistent aerobic exercise (e.g., 30 minutes every day) may induce improvements in certain cognitive functions, neuroplasticity and behavioral plasticity; some of these long-term effects may include increased neuron ...

7. Dopaminergic pathways - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopaminergic_pathways

   Dopaminergic pathways ( dopamine pathways, dopaminergic projections) in the human brain are involved in both physiological and behavioral processes including movement, cognition, executive functions, reward, motivation, and neuroendocrine control. [1] Each pathway is a set of projection neurons, consisting of individual dopaminergic neurons.
