The Masterclass by IFCN was created in response to a call from IFCN member societies for more high quality, complimentary, online educational content. The series will provide a new presentation every month from top clinical neurophysiologists around the world, and each will include time for discussion with the lecturer following the presentation.

Providing the best in contemporary clinical neurophysiology education delivered in the most optimal format is the primary educational goal of the IFCN. As such, Masterclass by IFCN will be available complimentary to all registrants.

Masterclass by Professor Yoshikazu Ugawa, MD will present:
Quadripluse stimulation (QPS) in 2023

Join us for the next Masterclass by IFCN presentation on Saturday, April 8, 2023 at 6:00 pm (EDT).

There are several non-invasive brain stimulation (NBS) methods to induce synaptic plasticity in human brain and spinal cord.

We have developed quadripulse stimulation (QPS), one of patterned repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), from 2007. It must induce robust and stable plasticity as compared with the other methods.

I would like to summarize the QPS method, show its superior points to the other methods and possible mechanisms underlying those points.

Its applications to analyses of normal physiology, pathophysiological studies of neurological disorders, and a treatment application will be provided to the audience.
