Welcome to the Neural Rhythms Lab! We study how the brain uses sound and the rhythm within it, to control movement and support cognition. We turn these discoveries into simple, non-invasive tools, like sound-based therapies, to help with psychiatric, movement, and neurocognitive disorders. Based at the VA Palo Alto Healthcare System, we're committed to making this care accessible to Veterans and older adults.

New episode of the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute podcast!
Host Nicholas Weiler talks with Corey Keller, MD, PhD, about transcranial magnetic stimulation and where the field is headed, including a segment on Dr. Ross' work synchronizing TMS to musical rhythms (seTMS) and the effects on cortical excitability and plasticity.
Episode title: Transcranial magnetic stimulation and the future of psychiatry
Podcast: From Our Neurons to Yours

Our research on sensory-entrained TMS was recently highlighted by the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute!
The article covers our finding that timing TMS pulses to musical rhythm can more than double their effect on motor cortex excitability, and explores what this could mean for future psychiatric applications.
