Both virtual reality (VR) goggles and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), as stand-alone tools, have proven to be valuable in neuroscience, medicine, and psychology. However, their combined use is rare due to limited data on technical compatibility and safety considerations. It is unclear whether all brain regions can be equally stimulated while in VR.To investigate the constraints of integrating VR goggles and TMS and to assess brain region accessibility, we explored 28 TMS coil positions over five 3D-printed heads outfitted with MetaQuest2 VR goggles and a TMS coil, using both MNI coord

Goal-directed movements are associated with unique neurophysiological alterations in motor-related brain regions. This study systematically examined the interhemispheric connectivity between the premotor (dorsal, PMd; ventral, PMv) and the primary motor (M1) cortices using dual-site transcranial magnetic stimulation. We had 30 right-handed young adults (15F; 26.5±4.3yrs) participate in three experimental conditions to examine interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) between: (1) PMd to M1, (2) PMv to M1 and (3) M1 to M1. PMd and PMv were located relative to M1 (PMd: 2cm anterior, 1cm medial; PMv: 3cm
