TMS Friday returns! - this Friday at 14h UK time, with

Dr Robert Hardwick presenting his lab's work on "RMT-Finder" - an automated threshold-finding tool for CED/Spike & Magstim TMS setups.

TFW: you do the most basic control for a "well-established" scientific protocol that hundreds of papers have used as a measure and... the control shows the same effect.

So now I have another series of experiments to run 🙄. I'm so glad to have 13 project students this year 😊
