17 resources created by 7 users

This Brain Stimulation Techniques page on GoConqr gathers community-made quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes, from TMS physics and protocols to entrainment. It is for university students studying stimulation methods and teachers looking for material on these topics. The small set of resources is at university level and includes prompts on TMS effects as well as maps of protocols and stimulation. Start with a mind map, then try a quiz.

About Brain Stimulation Techniques

GoConqr Original

Start with TMS

The TMS flashcard deck asks what TMS is and what effects it generates. It also includes questions about the limitations of studying lesion effects through case studies and about a magnetic pulse below the level needed to create a phosphene. Use those prompts to identify terms you want to look up in the other resources.

The lecture mind map brings together functions of TMS, stimulation, motor evoked potentials and phosphenes. It also has branches on disruption, modulation and physics, giving you a way to see those terms alongside one another.

Follow the physics and protocols

The notes and mind map on the first task cover TMS and its physical principles. The map includes a high-current magnetic pulse and an induced electric field. Read the notes alongside the map, then use the map to trace the terms without relying on the same format each time.

Next, look at the notes on protocols, designs and paradigms and the NIBS protocols mind map. They include event-related TMS and the timing of a magnetic pulse in relation to a behavioral task. The map also lists online and offline paradigms, temporal resolution and sham.

Explore other resources and check your understanding

The Entrainment notes discuss brain oscillations and transcranial alternating current stimulation. Another note covers TMS and fMRI, including effects in remote cortical areas. The Neurostimulation quiz includes questions on muscle fibers, synapses and action potentials. Neuromodulation is also available as a quiz.

Use a quiz to see which questions you can answer, then return to a relevant map or note for another look. You can also compare the terms in the TMS flashcards with the branches of the lecture map.

Place the topic in the unit

Brain Stimulation Techniques is a section of Research Methods, Neuroimaging and Computational Approaches in Neuroscience. The notes on TMS and fMRI offer a place to consider that connection within the material listed here.

Choose a resource that matches the terms you want to study, and work through it at your own pace.

Frequently asked questions

Where should I start with TMS?

The TMS flashcard deck is a starting point for reviewing questions about what TMS is and the effects it generates. The lecture mind map provides a companion view of functions, stimulation, phosphenes and physics. The notes and mind map on the first task then offer more material on physical principles.

What do the mind maps cover?

The mind maps cover several parts of the topic. The lecture map includes TMS functions, stimulation and physics. The NIBS protocols map lists paradigms, timing and measures. Other maps are titled Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and iTBS, and there is also a map on entrainment.

Are these resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed on this page is free to open, study and take without an account. A free account also saves quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes. The listed resources were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr.

Which quiz can I use alongside the mind maps?

The Neurostimulation quiz includes questions on muscle fibers, synapses and action potentials. Neuromodulation is another quiz listed on the page. After answering questions, you can return to a mind map or note to review relevant terms, or use the TMS flashcard deck for more prompts.
