Following the success of its inaugural event in 2007, Magstim announces the second Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Summer School - Brain Stimulation and Rehabilitation, on 30-31 May 2008
International academics and researchers from the fields of neuroscience and neurology will present on a wide range of topics from 'brain stimulation in healthy subjects' to 'therapeutic brain stimulation for rehabilitation', with equipment demonstrations from Magstim and Rogue Research.
