A double-blind, sham-controlled, trial of home-administered rhythmic 10-Hz median nerve stimulation for the reduction of tics, and suppression of the urge-to-tic, in individuals with Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder (2023)
Journal Article

A double-blind, sham-controlled, trial of home-administered rhythmic 10-Hz median nerve stimulation for the reduction of tics, and suppression of the urge-to-tic, in individuals with Tourette syndrome and chronic tic disorder. Journal of Neuropsychology, 17(3), 540-563. https://doi.org/10.1111/jnp.12313

Tourette syndrome (TS) and chronic tic disorder (CTD) are neurological disorders of childhood onset characterized by the occurrence of tics; repetitive, purposeless, movements or vocalizations of short duration which can occur many times throughout a...

The oscillatory effects of rhythmic median nerve stimulation (2022)
Journal Article
Houlgreave, M. S., Morera Maiquez, B., Brookes, M. J., & Jackson, S. R. (2022). The oscillatory effects of rhythmic median nerve stimulation. NeuroImage, 251, Article 118990. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2022.118990

Entrainment of brain oscillations can be achieved using rhythmic non-invasive brain stimulation, and stimulation of the motor cortex at a frequency associated with sensorimotor inhibition can impair motor responses. Despite the potential for therapeu... Read More about The oscillatory effects of rhythmic median nerve stimulation.

Examining the neural antecedents of tics in Tourette syndrome using electroencephalography (2021)
Journal Article
Morera Maiquez, B., Jackson, G. M., & Jackson, S. R. (2022). Examining the neural antecedents of tics in Tourette syndrome using electroencephalography. Journal of Neuropsychology, 16(1), 1-20. https://doi.org/10.1111/jnp.12245

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by the occurrence of motor and vocal tics. TS is associated with cortical-striatal-thalamic-cortical circuit dysfunction and hyper-excitability of cortical limbic and motor regions...

Entraining Movement-Related Brain Oscillations to Suppress Tics in Tourette Syndrome (2020)
Journal Article
Morera Maiquez, B., Sigurdsson, H. P., Dyke, K., Clarke, E., McGrath, P., Pasche, M., …Jackson, S. R. (2020). Entraining Movement-Related Brain Oscillations to Suppress Tics in Tourette Syndrome. Current Biology, 30(12), 2334-2342.e3. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2020.04.044

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterised by the occurrence of vocal and motor tics. Tics are involuntary, repetitive, movements and vocalisations that occur in bouts, typically many times in a single day, and are often prec...
