Pragmatic Accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

New finding! 5-day accelerated TMS (no MRI needed) showed major PTSD symptom relief in n~100 Veterans—77% response, 62% remission. Fast, scalable, and effective with scalp-based targeting. A big step for accessible PTSD care. 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #TMS #PTSD

Less than a week until a sweet sneak peak at our #focusedultrasound for non-invasive deep brain neuromodulation at the "Neuroscience for Primetime" session at #SOBP2025 (thursday afternoon) - hope to see you there!

Personalized models of BeamF3 targeting in transcranial magnetic stimulation for depression: Implications for precision clinical translation Clinical transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for depression routinely relies on the scalp-based BeamF3 targeting method to identify stimulation targets in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dLPFC...

Exciting day in low intensity focused ultrasound - started work on the interaction between contextual manipulation and sonication.

(Ps still trying to figure this platform so advice is welcome)

Folks - the need continues and if you’re able to be charitable please donate!
