Baseline effects of transcranial direct current stimulation on glutamatergic neurotransmission and large-scale network connectivity.
Michael A. Hunter,Brian A. Coffman,Charles Gasparovic,Vince D. Calhoun,Michael C. Trumbo,Michael C. Trumbo,Vincent P. Clark +6 more
TL;DR: The observed relationships between glutamatergic neurotransmission and network connectivity may be used to guide future tDCS protocols that aim to target and alter neuroplastic mechanisms in healthy individuals as well as those with psychiatric and neurologic disorders.

Cortical thickness as a contributor to abnormal oscillations in schizophrenia
J. Christopher Edgar,Yu-Han Chen,Matthew R. Lanza,Breannan C. Howell,Vivian Chow,Kory Heiken,Song Liu,Cassandra Wootton,Michael A. Hunter,Mingxiong Huang,Gregory A. Miller,José M. Cañive +11 more
TL;DR: Examining how superior temporal gyrus (STG) structure relates to auditory STG low-frequency and 40 Hz steady-state activity found disease-associated damage to STG gray matter in schizophrenia may disrupt the age-related left STG gamma-band function–structure relationships observed in controls.

Enhanced working memory performance via transcranial direct current stimulation: The possibility of near and far transfer
Michael C. Trumbo,Michael C. Trumbo,Laura E. Matzen,Brian A. Coffman,Michael A. Hunter,Aaron Jones,Charles S.H. Robinson,Vincent P. Clark +7 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that WM training paired with brain stimulation may result in cognitive enhancement that transfers to performance on other tasks, depending on the combination of training task and tDCS parameters used.

Lateralized abnormalities in auditory M50 sensory gating and cortical thickness of the superior temporal gyrus in post-traumatic stress disorder: Preliminary results
Michael A. Hunter,Gerardo Villarreal,Greg R. McHaffie,Billy Jimenez,Ashley K. Smith,Lawrence A. Calais,Faith M. Hanlon,Robert J. Thoma,José M. Cañive +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the structural integrity of right hemisphere STG cortices play an important role in auditory sensory gating deficits in PTSD.
Temporal and frontal cortical thickness associations with M100 auditory activity and attention in healthy controls and individuals with schizophrenia
J. Christopher Edgar,Michael A. Hunter,Michael A. Hunter,Mingxiong Huang,Mingxiong Huang,Ashley K. Smith,Yu-Han Chen,Yu-Han Chen,Joseph Sadek,Joseph Sadek,Brett Y. Lu,Gregory A. Miller,Gregory A. Miller,José M. Cañive,José M. Cañive +14 more
TL;DR: Reduced GM cortical thickness may serve as a common substrate for multiple functional abnormalities in SCZ, with structural-functional abnormalities in STG GM especially prominent.
