Magnetic Tides

Brief Description

Magnetic Tides has developed a new non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) system capable of modulating brain function more reliably and effectively than previously existing NIBS methods.

NIBS is used as a research tool to safely, transiently alter the excitability state of targeted neurons when testing causal hypotheses about brain-behavior relationships. In addition, clinicians have recognized the potential of NIBS as a new intervention in the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders.
