Sponsor's own description

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether brain anatomy impacts the efficacy of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) which is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation. TMS is used to stimulate different areas of the brain and it is well tolerated and generally a safe procedure. It has been studied by researchers for 20 plus years. This brain stimulation device and technique used in this study is an investigational device that has not been approved by the U.S. FDA for treating any muscle or nerve problems.
