Chronometric interleaved TMS-fMRI shows state-dependent network effects underlying speech production
Our results challenge the classic "virtual lesion" view of TMS by demonstrating that stimulation can amplify neural activity in a state-dependent manner. This work establishes a novel methodological framework for temporally precise causal mapping of speech networks and emphasizes the critical role of cognitive state in shaping brain responses to stimulation.
