A mouse model of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation reveals a prefrontal mechanism that links accelerated antidepressant behavioral effects to cell type-specific circuit plasticity.
An optogenetic model of accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation reveals cell type-specific plasticity mechanisms and a key role for a fronto-insular circuit in driving the antidepressant…
