Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted the present study with the aim of developing a new non-medical therapy for Alzheimer's disease by combining TMS with cognitive battery. Normal healthy volunteers participated in the McGurk task study (McGurk effect is an auditory illusion caused by the interference from unmatched visual inputs; e.g. a combination of auditory /Ba/ and visual /Ga/ results in the perception of a third syllable of /Da/). Functional MRI study revealed that activation of frontal lobes controls the occurrence of McGurk effect. Application of TMS over the primary motor cortex mouth area reduced susceptibility of McGurk effect. Findings indicate that frontal lobe network plays roles in detecting and resolving multisensory incompatibility to reduce illusion. Based on the present results, we would like to proceed with the development of a new hybrid treatment combining TMS with cognitive training.
