On October 16, 2024, the NATO Neurostimulation Committee visited the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research’s (WRAIR) Sleep Research Center (SRC). Hosted by Dr. Tracy Jill Doty, Chief of the SRC, the visit focused on learning about ongoing fatigue mitigation research using neurostimulation.
The NATO Neurostimulation Committee is a working group of leading researchers in neuroscience, cognition, and brain function. Established in July 2024, the committee addresses common limitations in neurostimulation research by conducting large-scale, multi-laboratory experiments across multiple countries. Its mission is to advance the understanding of cognitive performance enhancement through robust and thorough investigations. The committee’s work centers on neurostimulation, a field that encompasses various technologies and techniques for targeting specific brain regions. Dr. Doty, an expert in sleep and fatigue, provides valuable insights to these efforts.
