Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

Multiple Daily “Spaced” tDCS Stimulation Sessions Over 2 Weeks Helped Patients with Major Depression
Researchers led by 2019 BBRF Young Investigator Jean-Philippe Miron, M.D., Ph.D., have reported the first clinical test involving a new and more intensive way of delivering transcranial direct… Read More
Evidence Grows of the Effectiveness of Rapid-Acting Brain Stimulation to Treat Bipolar Depression
Published research is providing additional evidence of the effectiveness and safety of rapid-acting non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to treat people suffering from bipolar depression. Read More
Functional Connectivity Signature for Cocaine Use Disorder and Response to rTMS Brain Stimulation Therapy Is Identified
Researchers have identified a robust functional connectivity brain signature that can accurately characterize neural circuit abnormalities in cocaine use disorder (CUD). The signature can, in turn,… Read More
Non-Invasive Stimulation of the Spine with Direct Current Reduced Major Depression Symptoms in Pilot Trial
A team of researchers has obtained encouraging results in a small pilot study testing a completely new way of treating major depression. The team was led by Francisco Romo-Nava, M.D., Ph.D., of the… Read More
Testing a New Way to Precisely Target and Predict the Impact of TMS Brain Stimulation for Depression
As non-invasive brain stimulation—variations of TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation)—continues to evolve and is administered to a growing number of patients with depression (and other illnesses,… Read More
