Alvaro Pascual-Leone, Dr. Emiliano Santarnecchi and Dr. Moushin Shafi, includes the assessment of brain plasticity processes via Theta-Burst stimulation, simultaneous TMS-EEG and tACS-EEG acquisition, neuronavigation based on MRI/fMRI data and cognitive/personality
assessment. The candidate will be primarily focusing on analyze EEG data collected before/during/after NIBS, therefore extensive prior experience with EEG preprocessing and analysis (e.g. EEG connectivity, source localization) is highly valued.

abilities in healthy controls. The project, led by Dr. Alvaro Pascual-Leone and Dr. Emiliano Santarnecchi, evaluates the impact of the combination of cognitive training and various forms of transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) in a large sample (>200
participants). The fellow will be focusing on (i) brain correlates of cognitive functions, (ii) mapping the neurophysiological changes leading to cognitive enhancement, and (iii) the definition of predictors of response to cognitive training and tES.
