Our new perspective in Nature Mental Health on TMS to the “dark side” of the brain is out now! TMS is usually delivered to the frontal lobes, yet neuroimaging often links posterior brain regions to psychiatric illness - maybe valuable new TMS targets? nature.com/articles/s4422…

After years of side-eyeing the “iTBS=excitatory/cTBS=inhibitory” mantra, I finally put my thoughts in print. This is me bearing my neuromod soul and ranting about the complexities of theta-burst TMS. If you also question this dichotomy, this one’s for you sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
