Objectives and competences

This course is part of the teaching project "Deep Tech Brain: Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, Neuroimaging, and Neuromodulation". The course introduces the physical and physiological bases of non-invasive neuromodulation techniques, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation. Students will learn how to design and apply neuromodulation protocols for research and clinical application. Its integration with neuroimaging, virtual reality and artificial intelligence will also be explored to optimize therapeutic interventions.
