NeuroMat Workshop on Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: Breakthroughs in Instrumentation and Neuromodulation 
 
Workshop Description:
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a well-established, non-invasive brain stimulation technique with many promising applications in neuroscience, neurology, and psychiatry. This workshop aims to present the state-of-the-art methodologies, the latest generation of TMS stimulators, and several groundbreaking applications in brain research and clinical practice. The NeuroMat project is dedicated to studying brain behavior under various stimuli, and TMS has been a key tool for directly interacting with brain function.
This workshop will feature oral presentations by distinguished international and national experts, hands-on sessions with TMS devices, brainstorming activities, and ample time for open discussions. Our goal is to foster a strong interactive environment to explore new perspectives and collaborative opportunities in TMS research and development. The participants will also have the possibility to be acquainted with the first Multilocus TMS Equipment installed in the southern hemisphere.
