Congratulations to Danny Huang and coauthors across institutions for a new paper on “Theta-burst direct electrical stimulation remodels human brain networks” in Nature Communications! In a collaboration between the Keller lab at Stanford and the Cash lab at MGH with coauthors, we characterize the effects of theta burst direct electrical stimulation on intracranial neural recordings in the human brain, showing possible signs of plasticity! These results could be predicted by underlying brain network connectivity and stimulation location, with implications for how stimulation therapies could modulate brain activity long-term.
