Call for study participants: Non-Invasive Temporal Interference Stimulation to Augment Cognition

The UK Dementia Research Institute is looking for healthy participants to join their study exploring the augmentation of attentional control using temporal interference (TI). As part of the UK Dementia Research Institute, we are developing brain stimulation interventions to improve the lives of people with dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease – a disease characterised by loss of memory

Neuromodulation survey suggests that patients and public prefer safe and noninvasive neuromodulation for mental health

A large-scale online survey of patients and the general public, led by researchers at Nottingham University, has captured views on using neuromodulation for brain and mental health interventions. The survey results suggest that noninvasive methods are preferred, and considered safe for mental health interventions. Find out more about the survey and see the results here:

Novel MRI technique could help patients with severe depression

The BRIGhTMIND trial, led by Neuromod+ member Richard Morriss at Nottingham University, has reported that the use of TMS in conjunction with MRI scans could ease symptoms of depression for up to six months. See details of the study “Connectivity-guided intermittent theta burst versus repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for treatment-resistant depression: a randomized controlled trial”
