Brief description of study

This research study is being conducted to learn more about how brain stimulation [transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)] affects the communication between brain regions. TMS is a new treatment that is starting to be used to treat depression and other psychiatric disorders. However, we do not have a good idea for how it changes the brain to make people feel better. This work is designed to help us understand how TMS changes how different parts of the brain talk to each other. When we finish the study, we may be able to use what we learn to develop new TMS treatments for other psychiatric disorders.
