TUS can non-invasively stimulate deep structures in the brain with high focality. Are these effects replicable?
Can we also reliably modulate thalamic nuclei at rest and during a decision making task?
European collaboration to develop a neuronavigated TUS-MRI system to precisely target deep brain structures.
How does cortical excitability change after stroke in patients with upper limb impairments?
Can dose-controlled non-invasive brain stimulation reliably modulate cortical excitability?
Electric field modelling shows large inter-individual variability in electric field reaching the brain and target region when applying TES.
This research provides ways to individualise stimulation protocol to vastly reduce electric field variability, which may result in more reliable effects.
