Big win for real-world #PTSD care. Our multisite #VAResearch study (n=756) shows transcranial magnetic stimulation substantially ⏬⏬ PTSD with iTBS & dTMS noninferior to 10Hz. Response 63–78%, remission 47–49%. >18 pt reduction on PCL-5. @brainstimj https://t.co/SoJzZwaDXX

Novel multi-focus ultrasound targeting the thalamus significantly reduced tremors in essential tremor patients - non-invasively & safely. Shrestha et al. demonstrate promising neuromodulation approach. https://t.co/L14SFkgFdH

Will temporal interference step into the spotlight in 2026 for Parkinson’s and beyond? Temporal interference refers to using two high-frequency electrical currents to create a lower-frequency stimulation that can non-invasively reach deeper brain regions. Demchenko and colleagues

Excited to share our recent systematic review with a meta-analysis of 47 studies to evaluate the safety/tolerability of TMS for SUD! Existing guidelines are based on expert opinions, not quantitative data. Our paper sought to fill this gap: 🧵 (1/x) https://t.co/1puKkY6R0c

Spinal cord stimulation triggers powerful post-inhibitory rebound excitation that generates weight-supporting ankle extension. Mahrous & Chardon et al. show this controllable response offers new hope for postural control in motor disorders. https://t.co/kwlj3WM4oW

Personalized brain stimulation interferes with trauma reconsolidation for treating PTSD: New study by Dezachyo & Yair et al. shows hippocampal-network TMS reduced intrusive memories by 70% (1.7→0.5/day) after reactivation. https://t.co/W93zJ3JTeW #PTSD #TMS @brainstimj

New in @brainstimj: Hengda He et al. use concurrent fMRI-EEG-TMS to show L-DLPFC TMS acutely modulates control & default mode networks, with state-dependent effects via prefrontal alpha phase. Baseline TMS network responses predict outcomes for TRD! https://t.co/eyzYgYSec0 #TMS

New in Brain Stimulation: "ITRUSST Consensus on Biophysical Safety for Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation" by Jean-François Aubry et al. Establishing key guidelines for safe TUS application. Read the full text: https://t.co/aGbkkIH34d #Neuromodulation #TUS #BrainStim

New Letter: Non-motor regions of motor cortex may be key targets for chronic pain treatment. Jean-Pascal Lefaucheur et al. discuss using navigated TMS to map inter-effector regions for optimized rTMS therapy. Read:

New study by @JulianaHougland et al. finds the optimal mu-rhythm phase for brain stimulation varies within & between sessions. Results highlight need for adaptive real-time EEG-TMS protocols to optimize motor cortex stimulation. https://t.co/DlhEiViShD

Finally out in Brain Stimulation: we show that intracranial microstimulation acutely boosts local neurovascular signals (CBW) near DBS leads. Great work with Srdjan Sumarac and Luka Milosevic! https://t.co/9v48XKG9SW #DBS #neurovascular #neuroengineering

If you work in brain stimulation for depression, you have to listen to my interview of Harold Sackeim. "Wired For Depression" in five parts:

Mircea van der Plas et al. reveal how human hippocampal neurons respond to electrical stimulation using electrodes more resilient to saturation. 29% of neurons show excitation-inhibition patterns, with ~100ms delays for cortical-hippocampal communication. https://t.co/vOuqJ3jQ1y

NEW RESEARCH: Emma Bortz, Erynne San Antonio & team used high-speed voltage imaging in awake mice to show transcranial ultrasound directly modulates neurons with <10ms latency, entrains activity at 10-40Hz, and induces plasticity. https://t.co/PBQ0uEgXq1

Is deep brain stimulation #DBS of the #subcallosal_cingulate a safe & durable treatment for treatment-resistant #depression? @drpouratian co-authors w international team. Can't wait for TRANSCEND results! @brainstimj https://t.co/7zK6PEsmaQ @UTSWMedCenter @UTSWBrain #Neurosurgery

New unit paper on “Flexible and stable cycle-by-cycle phase-locked deep brain stimulation system targeting brain oscillations in the management of movement disorders”, published in @brainstimj. https://t.co/qtzsXEyOMc @MRCBNDU @NDCNOxford @OxfordMedSci @UniofOxford

Genovese & Mussini et al. introduces "MultiMEP" - a method that decodes imagined hand actions from motor evoked potentials with 74% accuracy. This approach extracts far more information from single TMS trials than previously thought possible. https://t.co/5lZ8AsWJT4

New in @brainstimj : Giuseppe Valerio Aurucci et al. report that targeted neural stimulation synchronized with immersive VR significantly reduces neuropathic pain and modulates EEG biomarkers. Full text: https://t.co/0WqKfRBPay

Hot off the press! Our new paper in @BrainStimJ shows how 10 Hz r(T)MS induces synaptic plasticity via coordinated pre- & postsynaptic activation and BDNF/TrkB signaling. STDP modeling predicts frequency dependence. Kudos to @GalanisChr & the team!
