Description

Based on the extensive expertise in electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), deep brain stimulation (DBS) and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), the group aims to conduct clinical trials, database research and basic research to achieve a better understanding of the mechanisms of action of brain stimulation and to improve clinical practice. In the field of ECT, additional, more specific research areas are ECT anesthesia, maintenance ECT, quality markers of ECT, new fields of indication, imaging and biomarkers, and ECT training. A further aim is to expand national, international and internal cooperation.
