Network Control TMS fMRI

Brief description of study
The University of Pennsylvania seeks young adults ages 18-28
for a research study. The purpose of this study is to use different types of
MRI scans to find individualized TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation)
targets and compare how the brain responds. We are also interested in using TMS
during a working memory test to see how it affects task performance. TMS
involves a procedure during which your brain will be noninvasively (i.e. from
the scalp) stimulated by magnetic pulses and MRI scans are used to take
pictures of your brain. In this study we administer TMS inside of the MRI
scanner so we can see how the stimulation affects the rest of the brain.
