STUDY OF THE NEURAL BASES OF MOTOR AWARENESS IN BODY AWARENESS IN HEALTHY SUBJECTS AND IN PATIENTS WITH BRAIN LESIONS

The project investigates the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on deficits of body representation and body awareness in patients with right-brain lesions. Furthermore, it explores the neurofunctional basis of this kind of modulation, using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), in patients with neglect and age-matched healthy volunteers.
