[2025 Education and Research Fellowships] IFCN is pleased to announce the call for 2025 Education and Research Fellowships. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION: 30 APRIL 2025 2025 IFCN Education Fellowships The International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) is pleased to announce the availability of education fellowships that will be awarded to support training in clinical neurophysiology for applicants without access to similar training in their home country. IFCN also offers the opportunity aimed for those who live in the African continent and are looking for educational training support within Africa. (specific application) 2025 IFCN Research Fellowship The International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) is pleased to announce the availability of a research fellowship that will be awarded to support research in clinical neurophysiology for applicants without access to high quality research experience or specialised research methodology or technique in their home country. It is expected that the experience gained will be of significant impact in their home country. The maximum award for the fellowship will be $25,000 for a one-year fellowship, with proportionately less for a shorter fellowship.

[Editor's Choice: February 2025] Milica Manojlović, Jovana Bjekić, Danka Purić, Saša R. Filipović. High-density theta oscillatory-modulated tDCS over the parietal cortex for targeted memory enhancement. Clin Neurophysiol 2025;170:80-90. Editor's commentary: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a relatively low-cost, non-invasive stimulation approach that can potentially be applied by subjects at home. High density tDCS uses small electrodes in a ring formation to provide more focal stimulation than traditional tDCS with large anode and cathode. Theta oscillations in the hippocampus and parieto-temporal cortices are associated with memory encoding and retrieval. In this volume of Clinical Neurophysiology, Manojlovic et al. applied a novel protocol with high density anodal tDCS modulated at 5 Hz (theta frequency), known as theta oscillatory-modulated tDCS, to the left posterior parietal cortex in 22 healthy subjects. Application of the stimuli during both the encoding and the retrieval phases improved associative memory performance compared to sham stimulation. The study introduces a promising neuromodulation approach that can be further studied in memory disorders. Robert Chen Editor-in-Chief, Clinical Neurophysiology
