Research & Education
The academic engine of UCLA Neuromodulation — research labs, clinical studies, education, and training, alongside the clinical service.
Care, Research, and Training
UCLA Neuromodulation is both a clinical service and an academic division within the UCLA Semel Institute. Alongside patient care, the Division runs research labs, active clinical studies, an education program, and clinician training — advancing TMS, brain stimulation, and interventional psychiatry.

Journal Club
Researchers, trainees, and physicians present and discuss current neuromodulation literature, every other Tuesday through the academic year.
Conferences
The Division's conference on the state of the art in neuromodulation treatment.
Train in Neuromodulation
TMS Intensive Training
A hybrid training course — a dozen-plus online lectures plus a two-day, hands-on in-person session. Covers motor-threshold technique, multiple devices, and MRI-guided neuronavigation.
Course details →Resident Rotations
A PGY-1 Neuromodulation rotation and a PGY-3/4 half-day-per-week TMS clinic rotation for UCLA psychiatry residents.
