The Neurostimulation Laboratory enables non-invasive modulation of cortical activity to investigate causal mechanisms of cognition and behavior.

Core Technologies
    • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
    • Corticospinal excitability assessment
    • Electromyographic recordings from muscles
    • Real-time physiological monitoring

A Causal Approach to Brain–Behavior Relationships
Unlike purely observational methods, TMS allows researchers to:
    • transiently modulate specific cortical regions,
    • measure resulting changes in motor output and cognition,
    • directly test hypotheses about neural plasticity and functional organization.

When integrated with motion capture and HD-EEG, TMS supports a true multi-level mapping of neural, behavioral, and physiological processes.
