The next generation brain stimulation is here! Reversible, non-invasive, deep, focal, long-lasting neuromodulation in primates with ultrasound. Two papers out now in @eLife and @NeuroCellPress. Thread with details and data: 👇Links: doi.org/10.1016/j.neur… elifesciences.org/articles/40541 A forty second ultrasound protocol triggers changes to brain activity, even in deep areas such as the amygdala and ACC, for up to two hours. Work together with @davidefolloni, @jerome_sallet, Matthew Rushworth, Cecile Gallea, Pierre Pouget, Jean-Francois Aubry, and many friends.
