We are thrilled to present our work developing a novel method to understand the cortical and subcortical effects of TMS in the human brain, now published at molecularpsychiatry. nature.com/articles/s4138… Thread 👇

A big welcome Amit Persad from U of Saskatchewan who will be our epilepsy surgery fellow this year!

Theta-burst stim (TBS) is used to treat depression, but how does it work? I dug into this question in my research yr with Corey Keller Angelique C Paulk, now out in Nature Communications, finding that TBS can produce plasticity-like changes in just minutes of stim. nature.com/articles/s4146…

New TBS findings w/ iEEG by brilliant Danny Huang, MD! TBS → plasticity in minutes; DLPFC stim affects ACC; Connectivity predicts response! 🧠⚡️Opens new avenues for TBS optimization. More w/ TMS-iEEG, 3x TBS & units soon! Thanks Angelique C Paulk & team for collaborating 🙏 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute

Grateful to the Society of Neurological Surgeons, Costas Hadjipanayis, Dr. Linda Liau for organizing this incredible program and supporting resident research!

Glad to share some of my PhD work on using molecular classification to predict outcomes following surgery and radiotherapy in meningiomas published in Nature Medicine. Grateful to gelareh-zadeh and Farshad Nassiri for helping guide this work and to our collaborators, reviewers,

What a great honour to have been invited and to visit beautiful Buenos Aires!

1/10 We need better ways to measure brain excitability in psychiatric disorders. The prefrontal cortex—key target for brain stimulation treatments—is particularly hard to assess. Our new studies tackle this with systematic mapping! bit.ly/4cjHknX &bit.ly/3PW8RCx

Our paper was just published in Nature Communications. Acute pain leaves reliable neural and facial signatures that can be tracked in natural contexts, thus promising objective, real-time pain monitoring. With Stanford Neurosurgery Corey Keller, Vivek P. Buch, MD Josef Parvizi
