Towards close-loop tES: Workload monitoring during tACS stimulation

Abstract

EEG is commonly used to assess working memory load which can have key implications when considering decision making during critical tasks and recent studies have presented the use of transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) to enhance working memory processes. This study presents a system that monitors workload via EEG during tACS, which can be used in the future to modulate stimulation parameters based on ongoing measures of working memory performance. EEG measures electrical
