Targets may come from scalp-based heuristics, from group-average functional maps, or from an individual&rsquo;s own functional connectivity.</p> <p>This project investigates precision brain mapping for personalized TMS by directly comparing <strong>empirical, group-level, and individualized targeting strategies</strong>. I am assessing how much each approach actually improves targeting precision, how much data it requires, and where the practical trade-offs lie for clinical use.</p> <p>Work carried out in the <a href="https://bucknerlab.fas.harvard.edu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Buckner Lab</a> at Harvard, supported by the EPFL/HMS Bertarelli Fellowship.</p>
