The Link Between Brain Stimulation, Heart Rate, and Depression
13:45 - 21:23 (07:37)
This podcast episode discusses the link between dorsolateral prefrontal cortex stimulation, heart rate deceleration, and alleviating symptoms of depression, questioning why this is the case.

Neuroscience
Summary
Stimulation of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex causes a deceleration of the heart rate, as demonstrated by Mike Fox at Harvard. This area of the brain is also connected to patients who experience depression due to strokes.

Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
Summary
Stimulation of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex can lead to the alleviation of depressive symptoms, but researchers are still uncertain why this is the case. While some regularities have been found in right vs. left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, much remains to be discovered.
