First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study used a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS to explore how a specific brain area (the superior temporal sulcus) affects social perception in people with autism and healthy controls. Researchers measured changes in eye-gaze patterns and voice recognition after stimulation. The goal was to better understand the brain's role in social cognition, not to provide treatment.
