Study Summary

This trial is studying whether differences in brain structure may cause people to pay more attention to one side than the other. Healthy adults ages 18-35 may be eligible. Up to 7/8 hours of visits may be required which may include: physical exam, tests of attention and thinking, TMS, MRI scan, EEG, and questions about participants dominant hand and MRI.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Exploratory sub-studies under this protocol will answer questions about how to optimize EEG recordings of the cortical response to TMS.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Healthy VolunteersExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
thematic permission to use non-invasive techniques regarded as having minimal risk in healthy individuals, such as, MRI, EEG, EMG, low-frequency stimulation (= 1 Hz), electrical stimulation of the skin to mimic the somatosensory artifact of TMS, and behavioral tests
