Brain zapping study reveals how we stay in control
NCT ID NCT05878080
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS affects connections between the prefrontal and parietal cortex—areas important for planning and control. 54 healthy young adults received TMS while their brain activity was measured with fMRI. The goal was to understand brain function, not to treat any disease.
