Human thalamus: neurochemical mapping of inferior pulvinar complex.

abstract：:Using a system capable of relatively localized and rapidrate transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), evoked trains of complex spikes were studied in rodent auditory cortex. Low rate rTMS from 1 to 10Hz produced a frequency-dependent increase in spike rate. Iterations of rTMS resulted in long-term potentiation (LTP)-...
