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

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.
