We are pleased to announce the Magstim/University of Oxford TMS Summer School which will take place on Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th June 2010 at the Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford, U.K.

2010 marks two important anniversaries: 25 years since Anthony Barker and colleagues’ publication of the first human TMS experiment, and 20 years since the foundation of the Magstim Company. To celebrate these milestones we are pleased to include a special plenary lecture by Professor Barker – TMS: the first 25 years - and to offer registrants the opportunity to attend a celebratory dinner.


The scientific program is organised as a single stream of lectures by distinguished international faculty. Invited talks have an educational goal in addition to presenting the results of cutting edge research. This year the two-day programme is focussed on two themes:

Day 1: "Brain stimulation approaches to neural circuit function"

Day 2: "Brain stimulation to enhance sensory, motor and cognitive functions"

In addition, there will be displays of magnetic stimulation, neuro-navigation and electrophysiological products by: The Magstim Company and Rogue Research.

The event is organised by Dr. Jacinta O’Shea, Dr. Heidi Johansen-Berg and Professor Vincent Walsh.
