First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at how two different ways of giving a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called iTBS affect brain plasticity—the brain's ability to change and adapt. 29 healthy, right-handed adults aged 18 to 50 took part. Researchers compared a standard stimulation pattern with a spaced-out version and a fake (sham) stimulation to see which one caused the most change in brain activity.
