Targeting Cerebellum to Treat Psychosis: a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Study

The goal of this study is to use transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to investigate the impact of modulating cerebellar activity on time perception, executive function, and mood and psychotic symptoms in psychosis patients (i.e., schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and bipolar disorder with psychotic features). The investigators hypothesize that abnormally reduced activity in the cerebellum contributes to the abnormalities in patients, that cerebellum-mediated disruptions in time perception may partially underlie executive dysfunction and symptoms, and that cerebellar stimulation will normalize disease-relevant outcome measures.
