Abstract

The research aimed to create a groundbreaking neuromodulation method to improve consciousness. Firstly, an innovative rhythmic sound and electric stimulation technique was introduced to modulate consciousness in healthy individuals. Subsequently, this technique was tested on patients with consciousness disorders. The study concluded by examining the impact of this stimulation on brain connectivity, shedding light on the fundamental mechanism of the technique.
