Concurrent TMS-fMRI and accelerated rTMS treatment in Major depressive disorder (MDD)

The Neurostimulation Group is located at the Neuroimaging Center (NIC) of the Johannes Gutenberg University Medical Center and associated with the Leibniz Institute for Resilience Research (LIR). The main focus of the group is on the development and application of multimodal non-invasive neurostimulation and neuroimaging approaches, combining neuronavigated transcranial brain stimulation techniques, such as transcranial magnetic (TMS), electric (tES), and ultrasound (TUS) stimulation, with concurrent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) as well as electro- and magnetoencephalography (EEG, MEG).

The Experimental & Applied Psychophysics group works within the Department of General Psychology of the University of Padova. The group carries investigations in vision, auditory and audiovisual psychophysics with behavioral techniques, neuromodulation techniques (tES) recording of electrophysiologic signals (ERPs) and patient studies, interference techniques (TMS).
