Ever wonder why some brain regions are more excitable? Using intracranial stim and recordings in humans, our team led by @Momi Sara Parmigiani Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute andrea pigorini John Griffiths Precision Neurotherapeutics Lab @ Stanford discovered a fascinating hierarchy in these neural responses 🧠⚡️

My hypothesis was inspired by an episode of the Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. podcast with Nolan Williams where they discussed advances in rapid Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) for the treatment of depression utilizing the SAINT protocol. (3/12)
