Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a clinical technique employed in the treatment of multiple pathological conditions such as chronic pain, stroke, and among others. Nonetheless, a comprehensive exploration of the impact of electric fields on cortical circuits is still necessary. Studies by Frohlich and McCormick (2010) and D’Andola et al. (2018) have revealed the effect of direct current (DC) exogenous fields to modulate emergent activity patterns in cortical slices exhibiting spontaneous slow oscillations (SO).Considering the potential of tDCS as a treatment option for epileps
