Photobiomodulation therapy and the brain: An innovative tool for therapy and discovery

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

This brief outline attempts to highlight the complexity of the human brain as an organ. Despite its relatively homogenous cell-tissue anatomical structure, there is significant interconnectivity and integration to enable its higher level functions. Insights from brain pathology and a bottom-up artificial intelligence and a sensor approach are explored. The current treatment limitations and broad neurocognitive applications of the low dose light treatment, termed photobiomodulation therapy, are discussed.
