An enhanced form of non-invasive #brain stimulation called SNT generated "a large #antidepressant effect" that brought remission to 79% of treatment-resistant #depression patients within 4 weeks of a 5-day treatment course. https://t.co/d4LK6KCNjs
Many thanks to @CBSSunday for a great interview. I would also like to thank the team that have worked so very hard to make SAINT a reality (@EleanorJCole, @BrandonBentzley, @Stanford_BSL). @standfordmed @Stanford @StanfordPSY

Brain stimulation world- don’t miss this great article from @EleanorJCole@NolanRyWilliams High density TMS (iTBS 1800, 90% rMT, 5 days, 10 sessions/day) led to remission in 78% (active) vs 13% (sham/placebo) in a cohort of MDD + suicidal inpatients
Our team showed that nearly all very depressed patients get dramatically better w just 5 days of a new kind of treatment. This is truly game-changing.
Great work, teammates at @StanfordPSY: @NolanRyWilliams@KristinRajMD@EleanorJCole@EspilPhD et. al.!

Double-blind RCT of Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) is out in AJP. Thank you to the amazing team for making this happen, I am excited for the future of neuromodulation in psychiatry: https://t.co/zASVLeDPCz
US employers cut 140,000 jobs in December, according to the latest jobs report. Women accounted for all the losses, losing 156,000 jobs, while men gained 16,000. https://t.co/TOTnq6YraX
@DrCoreyKeller Definitely. I'd be really interested to do this in different clinical populations too. Particularly interested in ASD where the optimal stim parameters are likely to be completely different from controls or MDD pts
