This study uses AM-kTMP to modulate speech perception by entraining neural activity, showing increased phasic modulation compared to sham stimulation.

This study uses amplitude-modulated kilohertz transcranial magnetic perturbation to test the role of beta and delta oscillations in human motor learning, finding that beta stimulation impairs performance.

This paper introduces and evaluates kilohertz transcranial magnetic perturbation (kTMP), a non-invasive method that increases cortical excitability through subthreshold electric fields.

The paper investigates how sensorimotor cortex and subthalamic nucleus encode unimanual and bimanual hand movements, finding that STN encodes movements for both hands and is context-sensitive, while SMC is contralaterally biased and context-insensitive.

The paper finds stronger bilateral kinematic encoding in the left hemisphere during arm movements, with better across-arm generalization, suggesting a dominant role of the left hemisphere in motor control.

The paper identifies two distinct neural coding components in the motor cortex during unimanual movements, showing how bilateral arm signals are separated and interact.
