Multisensory Audio-Visual-Tactile Neuromodulation Paradigms: An In-Depth Examination of Tactile and Electrical Stimulation in Neurocognitive Enhancement

In a world increasingly captivated by the myriad possibilities of sensory neuroscience, tactile sensory inputs remain an under-explored yet vital facet of neuromodulation paradigms, especially within audio-visual-tactile (AVT) frameworks. This manuscript aims to offer a thoroughly researched examination of the methodologies underpinning neurocognitive processes and ethical quandaries that are integral to the efficacious incorporation of tactile and electrical stimulation, colloquially known as eStim, within AVT therapeutic strategies. The focus extends from rehabilitation endeavors to the contentious but promising realm of cognitive enhancement in both pathologically impacted and neurotypical populations.
