Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nearly one-third of patients with mental health conditions are resistant to the current treatments with drugs.
Neuromodulation provides these patients with new treatment options, but invasive approaches such as deep brain stimulation have a high risk–benefit ratio.
This Special Issue focuses on developing and applying non-invasive neuromodulation approaches, with a particular emphasis on approaches that provide favorable targeting ability, to patients with functional brain disorders.
