Selective Modulation of Neural Network Activity Using Focal Brain Stimulation

Grant number: 1099082 | Funding period: 2016 - 2019

Completed

Abstract

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been touted as a viable treatment for a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders. However, the extent to which localised TMS influences widespread brain networks remains unknown. To fill this gap, we will combine neuroimaging and TMS in healthy adults. The project will provide a scientific foundation for the use of brain stimulation as an effective tool for improving function in a range of clinical conditions.
