Table 1. Table summarising the key features and proposed mechanisms for TMS and tES.
Figure 2. Schematic showing facilitatory and inhibitory TMS and tES protocols. There is no inhibitory tRNS protocol. MSO = maximum stimulator intensity.

Figure 3. Simplified schematic showing the insertion of a receptor (e.g., NMDA receptor) to the synaptic membrane in response to an increase in intracellular Ca+2, demonstrating long term potentiation (LTP; top right). Removal of a receptor from the membrane is shown for long term depression (LTD; top left), resulting in a decreased postsynaptic response. Long term potentiation and depression mediate the strengthening and weakening of synaptic connections, respectively, resulting in increased and decreased postsynaptic responses (bottom right and left panels).
