Treatments using targeted electricity have helped scientists find new ways to help people with neurological disorders over the past two decades.
The treatments, known as neuromodulation, have been effective in medical methods, such as deep brain stimulation. Patients are fitted with a “brain pacemaker” that sends electric jolts to neurons in the brain to ease mobility issues and help control patients’ tremors.
“You put implants into the brain to treat Parkinson’s or tremor[s] and this technology is also being used to treat migraine headaches, cluster headaches and a whole range of other conditions,” said Ali Rezai, the director of the Center for Neuromodulation at The Ohio State University.
In the latest episode of HuffPost’s science series, “Talk Nerdy To Me,” host Karah Preiss delves into neuromodulation and discusses how the targeted therapy could treat a wide range of problems like obsessive compulsive disorder, epilepsy, depression and addiction.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
