Summary

Through the BrainBox Initiative, investigators propose to study the effects of motor tFUS on Motor Evoked Potentials (MEPs) and GABA and Glutamate Concentrations in the Brain.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

DEVICE

Focused Ultrasound Stimulation

This aim will test whether motor tFUS parameters thought to be excitatory (50% duty cycle) vs. inhibitory (5% duty cycle) elicit their predicted effects on MEPs before and after each of three stimulation blocks, using 50 MEPs at each time point.
