Goldy obtained a 3-year post-doctoral fellowship from the Belgian FNRS. June 2022

Congratulations to Goldy who got a postdoctoral grant from the Belgian Fonds National de la Recherche Scientifique (FNRS) involving 3 years of funding.
The project is aimed at exploring neural oscillatory mechanisms underlying skill transfer/generalization and retention. This work involves a combination of behavioral assessments, TMS and EEG recordings to uncover the neurological basis of human motor skill performance. Our goal is to use closed-loop TMS-EEG technique to target specific phases of the sensorimotor neural oscillation that may be critical for skill memory consolidation and subsequently modulate transfer of a newly learned skilled movement. We believe this will further our neuroscientific knowledge of human skill behavior, as well as help us assess the efficacy of the closed-loop TMS protocol (as compared to traditional TMS protocols, such as rTMS).
