Exciting Associate Professor opportunity in Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford, with access to state-of-the-art neuroimaging and stimulation at OHBA/OxCIN: MEG, OPM, 3T/7T MRI, TUS, TMS & more. Please share! www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DSQ831/a...
Great piece by OxCIN researcher @mattweightman26.bsky.social and long-standing collaborator Ned Jenkinson, making brain stimulation relevant and understandable for a non-academic audience.
Researchers are exploring whether stimulating the brain with electric currents or magnetic fields helps people learn physical skills more effectively.
