Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Neuromodulation is often employed to directly affect nerves, typically those in the peripheral nervous system. However, to develop more advanced approaches to precision treatment, understanding the interplay between nerves and organs is rather important. Within large densities of nerve terminals or receptive fields, acupuncture can stimulate myocutaneous nerve systems that overlap with neuromodulation techniques.
For an upcoming Special Issue in Brain Sciences, we invite researchers and practitioners to submit original research papers using a variety of techniques (such as neuroimaging, neurobiology, clinical trials, or machine learning), as well as review articles that will advance the ongoing efforts to gain new insights into peripheral nerve stimulation, including neuromodulation and acupuncture.
