Overview

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is a powerful tool which can be used to ask questions about cause-and-effect relationships in the brain of healthy and pathological populations. It can also be used as a treatment in various psychiatric and neurological conditions.

Key Facts

To harness the full potential of NIBS and use it optimally, it is essential to have a strong theoretical foundation that allows users to make informed decisions about study design or treatment parameters. The  Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation - Foundations for Designing and Implementing Research course is offered at  VU Amsterdam Summer School

Programme Structure

Courses include:

  • Critically evaluate studies using NIBS.
  • Design well-controlled NIBS studies, using the appropriate protocols for their own research questions.
  • Assess safety when choosing protocols and recruiting participants or patients.
  • Interpret NIBS data to make well-justified inferences and conclusions.
  • Perform basic procedures of NIBS.

Other requirements

General requirements

  • Basic knowledge of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, at the Bachelors level, is essential for the course. The course is most suitable for Masters and PhD students who want to add a new tool to their repertoire. The aforementioned audience will be able to directly use what they learn in this course to design their own studies.
  • However, the course is also suitable for Bachelors students (if they have already followed a neuroanatomy and neurophysiology course) who are simply curious about the technique, and might develop new ideas after following the course.
