- 🚨New Publication!🚨 When doing research with transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), it is important to consider one major potential confound: retinal phosphenes. They may affect your data significantly, which is what we discuss here! doi.org/10.1016/j.ij...

- 🚨New Publication!🚨Using phase-targeted TMS-EEG we tested the cortical excitability of stroke survivors at various oscillation phases (mu rhythm). Published in Clinical Neurophysiology: doi.org/10.1016/j.cl... @alekseichuk.bsky.social #TMS #brain #brainstimulation #neuroscience
- This was the weekend of science in Groningen (aka #ZpannendZernike). It was my privilege to talk to kids, moms, dads, grandmas, grandpas, and more about the #brain, #neuroscience and #brainstimulation.

- 🚨WHOHOO!! I am happy to share that I received the #ERCStG for my project PRECHRON: The Prefrontal Chronometer for Organizing Working Memory. I am going to study #neuraloscillations during #workingmemory at the @rug.nl @rug-gmw.bsky.social #brainstimulation #TMS #EEG

- Had a great time with Gonzalo Rivera and @crimoral.bsky.social and many others at the SimNIBS workshop. A lot of discussion on #TMS, #tDCS, and #tACS!
- 🚨New Publication!🚨 Sybren van Hoornweder and I wrote a piece on personalization of transcranial electrical stimulation, focusing on sources of variability and how to optimize parameters to reduce this variability. Out now in TINS! doi.org/10.1016/j.ti... #brain #brainstimulation #neuroscience

- 🚨New Publication🚨 From the Opitz Lab (w/ @alekseichuk.bsky.social). A new closed-loop TMS-EEG algorithm that targets specific neural oscillation phases and is flexible across different brain regions and frequency bands. doi.org/10.1109/TBME... #brain #brainstimulation #neuroscience
- Summer time!
- 🚨 New paper: Motor cortex excitability is shaped by traveling alpha & beta waves 🧠🌊 Using EEG-triggered TMS & ECoG in humans + a non-human primate, we show excitability depends on phase and direction of neural rhythms. w/ Zach Haigh & Alex Opitz 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... #Neuroscience

- 🚨New Publication!!🚨 Transcranial alternating current stimulation (#tACS) can be used to modulate inter-regional synchronization, cross-frequency coupling, traveling waves and more. Here we reviewed the current methods and evidence on how effective tACS is. doi.org/10.1016/j.ij...

- How am I supposed to work like this. #workingfromhome
- 🚨New Publication🚨 Do you work with e-field modeling in NIBS? Do you not always want to use Ernie, but you have no access to MRIs? We share 100 fully preprocessed head models for e-field simulations based on the HCP. Thanks! @alekseichuk.bsky.social & Taylor Berger www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- Recharging between work is important. For me that means going into #nature
- Real love in the Dwingelerveld, #Netherlands #nature
- 🚨 New Publication!! 🚨 In this article @desmondagboada.bsky.social, Zhihe Zhao, and I discuss the mechanisms by which transcranial alternating current stimulation #tACS can result in effects that last beyond the duration of stimulation. #brain #neuroscience doi.org/10.3389/fnhu...

- 🚨New Publication!!🚨 In a collaboration with @charleslaidi.bsky.social and spearheaded by his student Yassine Yachou, we performed a meta-analysis together with electric field modeling on the effects of #tDCS on #depression #Sciene #Neuroscience #Brain www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
- Telling you students about Theory of Mind? #ToM maybe this introductory video from our #YouTube channel may be helpful. :) #science #psychology youtu.be/sH2vTWfMQJ0
- Throwback to 2021: Where and when are object and scene visual processing integrated? Using precisely timed #TMS @peelen.bsky.social and I found that this happens in the lateral occipital cortex around 260-300ms after stimulus presentation. doi.org/10.7554/eLif...
- How does an #MRI make images of your brain? Here is a video from our YouTube channel giving a 5-minute (simplified) introduction (particularly useful for students!): youtu.be/MFw9TjOctwA?...
- What intensity is needed for transcranial alternating current stimulation (#tACS) to induce neural entrainment? While this may depend on many factors, a meta-analysis of (awake) animal studies suggests a minimum of 0.3 V/m. @alekseichuk.bsky.social www.brainstimjrnl.com/article/S193...
- Do you want to introduce your students to Transcranial magnetic stimulation (#TMS)? Here is a video from my youtube channel (Psyched!) that could be interesting! There are also videos about many other methods! www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQHV...

- 🚨Old News🚨 (I will do a few of those in the next weeks): In 2020, we published a study showing that prefrontal transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) improves reversal learning. Mainly implementation of the rule, not so much learning speed: doi.org/10.1093/cerc...
