Research project funded by the National Institute of Mental Health to study cerebellar modulation of cognition in psychosis using neuromodulation techniques like TMS to improve cognitive impairments.
Description
This project aims to investigate the neural circuits involved in cognitive impairments in psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The research focuses on cerebellar-cortical functional connectivity and its modulation using non-invasive neuromodulation techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). The goal is to establish causal links between neural circuits and cognitive functions and to develop targeted interventions to improve outcomes.
