Motor Control and Adaptation

We report one confirmed generalized epileptic seizure and one suspected partial epileptic seizure that occurred during short (20s) continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) over the right operculo-insular cortex. Combined with psychophysics performed before and after cTBS, the aim of the procedure was to test whether modulation of the operculo-insular cortex affects the perception of thermal, nociceptive and tactile stimuli delivered to the ipsilateral and contralateral hands.
