Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand how the different regions of the brain affect our sense of limbs in space (proprioception) and in turn our hand movements (motor skill learning). This information might help us one day to generate better rehabilitation protocols to help patients with movement deficits.

Conditions

  • Basic Science

Interventions

OTHER

Theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation

Continuous theta burst TMS (cTBS) will be delivered to a location on the head. cTBS consists of 600 low-intensity TMS pulses delivered over 40 seconds in a pattern of 50 Hz triplets delivered at 5 Hz.

OTHER

Sham theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation

Continuous theta burst TMS (cTBS) will be delivered near the head, while an unplugged TMS coil is held at the vertex. No current will be induced in the head with this procedure.
