Abstract

Homeostatic plasticity is an important concept for the use of non-invasive brain stimulation (NBS) in rehabilitative settings. We aimed to determine the extent to which homeostatic plasticity was evident following administration of two trains of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS; 600 pulses per train). Of particular interest was the degree of homeostatic effects evident across the whole experimental cohort, and at the level of individual participants.
