(1/4) A new paper @brainstimj challenges a foundational assumption in computational models of brain stimulation (neuromodulation/electrical stimulation). Rather than suggest prior predictions were wrong, this paper shows how the suitability of this foundational assumption can be evaluated in any application (FES, SCS, DBS, TMS, tDCS, tACS, ETC, TI...). So this will be interesting...

Looking forward to the ‘Brain Stimulation at the Microscopic Scale’ event in February 2025! See you at the 6th International Brain Stimulation Conference. #BrainStim #Neuroscience #Freiburg #BrainStimulation neuromodec.org/events/brain-s…

Our latest paper on multi-locus #TMS uses a 2-coil array and a paired-pulse TMS paradigm to evaluate the optimal orientation for #SICI and #ICF. Worth checking out. 🧠⚡️ @AaltoUniversity , @rjirjirji, @Connect2Brain, @usponline, @cienciausp , @ulfziemann1, @LariKoponen

Listen to @rosacgrssmnn why she’s doing her #PhD study with #IMPRS CoNI. She works as a doctoral researcher in the @brainnetleipzig group at @MPI_CBS 😀😍😎. Call for applications 👉: is.gd/bFZ1GQ #academic #Neuroscience #PhD

Where to place an ultrasound transducer to optimally target a specific brain region in a given individual? We developed 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗧𝗨𝗦, a tool that helps TUS researchers to quickly and heuristically select the most promising transducer placement(s). A 🧵 on its functionalities.

@LMBClaudino @SandraM4rtin @GesaHartwigsen @labCoPla @brainstimj Interesting and a pity, it's a nice paper! I was a bit surprised to find so little on this topic tbh 🤷‍♂️ We explicitly didn't focus on MEPs (at *that* intensity/coil type/pulse shape/...) to not get lost in the review process - maybe it helped. You might try again now🤞

@num_ole @SandraM4rtin @GesaHartwigsen @labCoPla @brainstimj Congrats, good to see this out! In my 1st postdoc year we proposed use offline coil position data available for free to clean MEPs. Desk rejected by Brainstim and later by Cl Neurophys after long peer review. Ahead of time maybe? Here's the 1st version: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Why is motion correction a thing for fMRI but nobody quantifies it during #TMS? Well, we just put out a metric to easily quantify within-session movement of the TMS coil, e.g. due to subject movement. Say hi to pulsewise coil displacement / PCD. doi.org/10.1016/j.brs.… 🧵 1/5

Together w/ @SandraM4rtin, @gotillitsgood, @knosche, @GesaHartwigsen from @labCoPla and @brainnetleipzig at the @MPI_CBS. Letter now published in @brainstimj 5/5

Placement of the TMS coil is defined via 3 positional (XYZ) and 3 rotational parameters (abc). We set-up PCD with cortical e-field exposure in mind and also provide positional and rotational submetrics if you prefer that. Please have a look at the publication for details. 4/5

Fun to see everybody is submitting abstracts at the very last moment just as I do - 30 abstracts in while I was submitting two 😅 #BrainStimConf

Best paper acceptance mail ever 😅

@Joelle_Schroen @LeonKroczek @GesaHartwigsen @FriedericiLab Wow, congratulations, really impressive work Joëlle! Enjoy the time between worlds until your defense ☺️🍾

Submitted my #PhD dissertation yesterday! 🥳 Special thanks to Thomas Gunter, @num_ole @LeonKroczek @GesaHartwigsen @FriedericiLab for their support! #PhDone

21 pages p2p reply for 5 page submission: done ✅

Exciting discussions at #OHBM2024! Our symposium on Multimodal Imaging Approaches to Tackle Brain Excitability was a blast. Grateful to all presenters and participants for making it a success! @e_Kallioniemi @Jcoetzee @MartinTik1

It's been great #OHBM2024, including this weird foto-bomb guy - any ideas who that is? 💣🤯😎

@n_j_davis Nice, that fits well with our sample!

@num_ole Ooh this is great! I did something similar with brain images - the variance of most cortical targets is pretty high, with poor correlation with the depth of M1. Nice work! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

@neuro_engineer @BortolettoMarta @MarzettiLaura @TomasevicLeo @OHBM @neuro_engineer , not sure if I can make 9.00am @OHBeerM

State-of-the-art recent advances in TMS-EEG and TEPs will be presented at the #OHBM2024 symposium with @BortolettoMarta, @MarzettiLaura, and @TomasevicLeo. See you there! @OHBM
