The workshop starts from Friday noon onwards as we assume it will be more convenient for some participants to fly already on Friday early morning. The program consists of sections on nTMS presurgical mapping offered by the local scientific committee from Kings College Hospital of London as well as internationally known invited speakers. In planning the agenda, we have tried to have a good combination of theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience.
