To find out about how #TMS #BrainStim users collect, analyse & share their data, we've made a very brief TMS survey:
forms.gle/83Abpj5F8qzd...
It should take you less than 5 minutes & does not ask for any personal information.
We'll use the answers to plan our future work.
Please share!

TMSMultiLab survey
TMSMultiLab is a community of ~70 researchers using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We aim to share methods code and data, to reach consensus & encourage best practice in TMS research methods...

Friday is a big day for the TMS-RAT🤩
This Friday's Monthly Meeting is given by Solya Szekely @solyas.bsky.social who will tell us about the TMS-RAT 🐀 Project.
In this project, 18 members of TMSMultiLab created, developed & tested a tool for #SystematicReview #MeyaAnalysis & reporting in #TMS research
Join us!

This fall I will have a blind student in my coding class for the first time. Do any other instructors or visually impaired coders have advice beyond making sure my book has useful alt-text for the images? #rstats #accessibility

Had a wonderful time at #BACN last week. I’m very grateful for all the in-depth discussions, and so excited that our project with @mmarneweck.bsky.social was awarded the poster prize 🏆

We're now up to 29 labs across 16 countries for our replication project! There is still room for more labs to join us. We are particularly seeking labs capable of testing native English speakers, though all labs are welcome to participate. For more information: rolfzwaan.substack.com/p/memory-mis...

This year, I spent March–June at the University of Oregon, working with @mmarneweck.bsky.social on an fMRI analysis of the representational pattern similarity of lip and hand movements after upper-limb amputation.
Excited to share this at #BACN25 ✨ Find me at the datablitz/poster sessions on Friday!

Over the last few months, members of TMSMultiLab have read, analysed & assessed #TMS research papers to produce a new tool:
17 people
333 papers
80 criteria
2 raters per paper
The dataset contains 53,280 ratings!
It's an immense piece of work, the first empirical contribution of TMSMultiLab...

For TMS studies to be reproducible and for us to build on each other’s findings, we need to report what we actually did during the experiment.
We've built and now are evaluating the TMS-RAT (Reporting Assessment Tool).

The TMS-RAT v1.0 is now being tested!
It's a checklist / guidance tool to help researchers report #TMS studies & to facilitate quantitative comparisons in #systematicreviews & #meta-analyses
All the data will be made freely available; an interactive website will be coming. Stay tuned!

Happy 40th Birthday #TMS 🥳🧲🎈
Published in the Lancet on 11th May 1985, a 1-page report of a new device & the 1st TMS-evoked MEP changed brain stimulation research & treatment forever
We celebrated with Professor Barker two weeks ago in Birmingham
Here's to 40 more years!
