Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a powerful tool to probe in vivo brain circuits, as it
allows to assess several cortical properties such as excitability, plasticity and connectivity in …

Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to
neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in …

With increasing rates of survival throughout the past several years, stroke remains one of the
leading causes of adult disability. Following the onset of stroke, spontaneous mechanisms of …

Background In the past decade research has shown that continuous (cTBS) and intermittent
theta burst stimulation (iTBS) alter neuronal excitability levels in the primary motor cortex …

On the surface, the two hemispheres of vertebrate brains look almost perfectly symmetrical,
but several motor, sensory, and cognitive systems show a deeply lateralized organization …

The goal of this paper is to examine existing methods to study the “Human Brain
Connectome” with a specific focus on the neurophysiological ones. In recent years, a new …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) was initially used to evaluate the integrity of the
corticospinal tract in humans non‐invasively. Since these early studies, the development of …

Familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder of
the motor neurons. While 10–15% of cases are caused by mutations in the copper/zinc …

Abstract Background/Objectives Interhemispheric inhibition in the brain plays a dynamic role
in the production of voluntary unimanual actions. In stroke, the interhemispheric imbalance …

The past decade has seen significant developments in the concurrent use of transcranial
magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG) to directly assess cortical …
