NCT ID NCT07010614
First seen Mar 04, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 14 times
Summary
This study explores how a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation (TMS) affects brain activity in people with schizophrenia. Researchers aim to understand if they can safely target the hippocampus, a brain region linked to symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. The study involves 60 adults, including some with epilepsy who already have brain electrodes in place. This is a knowledge-gathering study, not a treatment trial, but it may pave the way for future therapies.
