Project: Evaluating precision functional mapping for improved clinical efficacy of real-time transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)
Zachary Haigh's functional mapping research will reveal precise targeting methods for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) based on functional MRI (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG). His research will allow for accurate targeting of specific functional networks during therapeutic use of TMS and will improve the efficacy of therapeutic TMS for a variety of stroke-related symptoms including motor, speech, and cognitive deficits.
