This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants) provides $557,588 to Magnetic Tides, Inc. to develop a two-coil Kilohertz Transcranial Magnetic Perturbation (KTMP) system for non-invasive brain stimulation. The goal is to enable simultaneous stimulation of two cortical brain targets or a single deep brain target, achieving stimulation intensities not possible with existing non-invasive methods. The 12-month project aims to construct the KTMP amplifier system, optimize electric field induction, and implement a coil navigation system to ensure precise and reliable brain targeting. This advanced KTMP technology has the potential to dramatically enhance non-invasive brain stimulation capabilities and enable new treatment approaches for various neurological and psychiatric conditions.
