A meta-analysis suggests that TMS targeting the hippocampal network selectively improves episodic memory (opens in new tab)

Episodic memory is critically dependent on the hippocampal network and is frequently impaired in many clinical disorders. Recent findings highlight Hippocampal Indirectly Targeted Stimulation (HITS) as a promising, network-guided non-invasive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) procedure to enhance episodic memory performance. Here, we report the first comprehensive meta-analysis of HITS effects on episodic memory, encompassing both healthy individuals and clinical populations. HITS using...
