About

    Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that uses electromagnetic coils to generate brief, high-intensity magnetic fields that can penetrate the skull and stimulate underlying regions of the brain. TMS has been used in various fields of neuroscience research to modulate brain activity and study the functioning of different brain regions. It is also being explored as a potential therapeutic tool for a range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as depression, schizophrenia, and chronic pain. TMS is considered safe and well-tolerated by most individuals, making it a promising tool for both research and clinical applications in the field of neuroscience.
