TMSMultiLab kindly requests that you show TMS coils TO SCALE on your methods brain Figures. This looks like the tiniest #TMS coil ever invented. In reality, the coil would cover ~2/3 of the brain. Make coils GREAT again! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I'm happy to report that @valedichiaro.bsky.social 's 2nd PhD paper is in press! :-). Brief explainer... - 2-coil #TMS over left & right primary motor cortex - TMS in the ~300ms before one hand responds - corticospinal excitability increases before response - no changes in non-responding hand 1/n

image describing the trials in the experiment. at the start of each trial, a random 1-3 foreperiod contains a fixation cross to warn the participant. The first event in the trial is a 200ms period with two coloured squares left and right of the (now disappeared) central fixation point (both are red, blue, yellow or green). These are the distractor 'Flanker' stimuli. A third coloured square is then presented centrally. This is the target stimulus. If the target is red or blue, the participant must grip a left force meter; if green or yellow, they grip the right force meter. They try to respond as quickly and as correctly as possible. In the ~300ms before their response, two pulses of TMS are delivered, one over each motor cortex. This TMS pulse excites the corticospinal tract and results in a muscle contraction. The size of the muscle contraction is used as a proxy for corticospinal excitability and response preparation.
