Summary

The purpose of this research study is to better understand the relationship between the type of brain stimulation used and how it changes brain activity in adult military Veterans. The goal is to use this understanding to develop new, personalized brain stimulation. The investigators evaluate brain changes from different types of transcranial magnetic brain stimulation (TMS).

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Standard TMSActive Control1 Intervention
A series of standard TMS protocols will be delivered to determine target engagement compared to seTMS. TMS will be delivered using neuro-navigation based on participant's own MRI images. Intensity will be set to 120% of the participant's motor threshold. Participants will be monitored during the session for adverse events and/or side effects.
Group II: Sensory-entrained TMS (seTMS)Active Control1 Intervention
Sensory entrained TMS (seTMS) is a combination of music and TMS to align brain oscillations and enhance the effects of TMS. seTMS will be delivered to determine target engagement to noninvasive seTMS brain stimulation compared to standard TMS. TMS will be delivered using neuro-navigation based on participant's own MRI images. Intensity will be set to 120% of the participant's motor threshold. Participants will be monitored during the session for adverse events and/or side effects.
