🧠⚡ We present a biophysically grounded framework coupling realistic neuron morphologies to TMS.

Our model links direct axonal activation from L2/3 to L5 corticospinal neurons, revealing direction- & dose-dependent spatiotemporal patterns.

In case you need a proxy for head circumference for your #NIBS meshes: pynibs.head_circumference() should do the trick.

Our #preprint on heart-brain coupling by TMS came just a little too late for the #BrainStimConf, it would've fit very well: #TMS, great stats ( #lme4 and #gam), repeatability checks, multiple targets - all the good stuff!
Check out our cool new preprint on heart-brain coupling induced by TMS over the DLPFC! ⚡️🧠📈
Thrilled to share our latest research with PhD student @zijianfeng.bsky.social and Postdoc @drsandramartin.bsky.social! We investigated TMS-induced heart–brain coupling (HBC) as a potential biomarker for personalized stimulation targets in the left DLPFC: doi.org/10.1101/2025...

Found a text-book-like stats example in (real) dataset of mine:

group level: 🔺 correlation
individual level: 🔻 correlations

Great preprint from @philkuhnke.bsky.social et al., glad we could integrate the E-field based #TMS dosing approach here 🙏
Also a another nice example how important it is to look at individual stimulation strength - well done!
