14. An ethical discussion of the use of transcranial direct current stimulation for cognitive enhancement in healthy individuals: a fictional case study
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation technique. Because of its low cost, ease of use, safety, and portability, tDCS has been increasingly investigated for therapeutic purposes in neuropsychiatric disorders and in experimental neuropsychological studies with healthy volunteers. These experiments on healthy cognitio

18. Relação entre volume hipocampal e volume de ressecção cirúrgica com controle de crises e desempenho de memória em pacientes com epilepsia de lobo temporal mesial submetidos a tratamento cirúrgico / Relationship between hippocampal volume and surgical resection volume with seizure control and memory performance in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy undergoig surgical treatment
Epilepsy is the second most frequent neurological disease and temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common form of focal epilepsy and is more frequently associated to refractoriness and memory decline. The epileptogenic lesion can be studied through magnetic resonance imaging, EEG and other tests, facilitating the indication of surgery that aims to reduce seizu

22. Relação entre as alterações estruturais do cerebelo e os transtornos psiquiátricos / Relationship between structural cerebellar changes and psychiatric disorders
Classically it was attributed to the cerebellum only functions regarding the control of movements, posture and balance. However, several studies have shown that the cerebellum also participates in the control of cognition, emotional processing and behavior through direct and indirect pathways. New evidence suggests that the cerebellum has structural and func
