New finding! 5-day accelerated TMS (no MRI needed) showed major PTSD symptom relief in n~100 Veterans—77% response, 62% remission. Fast, scalable, and effective with scalp-based targeting. A big step for accessible PTSD care. 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #TMS #PTSD

Some thoughts on McGirr et al's great pieces using DCS augmentation of TMS. Might we be getting closer to accelerating the pace of improvement? Coauthored with Josh Brown

Exciting day in low intensity focused ultrasound - started work on the interaction between contextual manipulation and sonication.

(Ps still trying to figure this platform so advice is welcome)

Working to develop a presence here. A quick image recap of me teaching TMS in #Ukraine last week - bringing knowledge to a very challenging situation. It was a reminder of the importance of simple, scalable TMS.
