Summary

This study looks at whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help autistic adults with motor difficulties. Researchers think an overactive brain plasticity might be the cause. They will test 150 adults aged 18-40 to see if rTMS can reduce this over-plasticity and improve motor function.
