摘要:Author Sylvane Faure Laboratoire d’Anthropologie et de Psychologie Cognitives et Sociales, Institut des Sciences Humaines et Sociales de Nice, Université de Nice-Sophia Antipolis, Campus Saint Jean d’Angely, SJA3/ISHS-Nice/LAPCOS, 24, avenue des Diables Bleus, 06357 Nice CEDEX 4 Key words: transcranial magnetic stimulation, deep brain stimulation, direct cortical stimulation DOI : 10.1684/nrp.2012.0212 Page(s) : 84-9 Published in: 2012 Several methods utilizing electric or magnetic stimulation of the brain in healthy or brain-damaged individuals allow us to study the relationship between the brain structure and functioning, on the one hand, and behaviour or cognitive functions, on the other. Surface or deep brain stimulations concern pathological conditions which justify direct stimulation of the brain, for instance when surgery for a tumor is necessary. The aim is determining which cerebral areas must be spared by the surgery for not to cause cognitive disorders, in particular for language and memory. In this way, information both about brain cartography of cognitive functions and connectivity within the underpinning cerebral networks which subtend these functions can be collected. Transcranial magnetic stimulation and direct current transcranial stimulation are the main noninvasive methods for fundamental research and therapeutic purposes. This panorama introduces five papers corresponding to the conferences invited at the 35th “Journées de printemps de la Société de Neuropsychologie de Langue Française” held at the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis in May 2011. These contributions will lead the reader to a deeper understanding of the notions that are here introduced with respect to both theoretical and clinical apports given to the field of neuropsychology by the approaches utilizing brain stimulation.
