First seen Apr 21, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested a new way to personalize brain stimulation for depression by using heart rate responses to guide treatment. Researchers mapped the brain to find the best spot for stimulation in 34 healthy volunteers and people with depression. The goal was to better understand how the brain, heart, and gut are connected, not to cure or treat the condition directly.
