Martijn Arns
Visiting Scholar, Psych/Major Laboratories and Clinical & Translational Neurosciences Incubator
BioI'm a biological-psychologist and entrepreneur with a background in applied neuroscience and brain stimulation. In 2001, I founded Research Institute Brainclinics as a private and independent research institute part of the non-profit Brainclinics Foundation where I'm still research director. The Brainclinics Foundation’s primary mission is best summarized as: 'Applied Neuroscience: From the clinic, to the clinic' and focuses on interventional psychiatry and applied neuroscience where research outcomes should be easily translatable into clinical practice and clinically actionable. My expertise extends to the development and application of brain stimulation techniques, such as rTMS for depression and OCD, TMS induced Heart-Brain Coupling and EEG based precision psychiatry and stratified psychiatry. Currently, I'm associate professor at the University of Maastricht (Brain Stimulation and Cognition) and visiting scholar at Stanford University (Stanford Brain Stimulation Lab).

Ryan T. Ash MD, PhD
Instructor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioMy lab is interested in developing novel neuromodulation technologies to augment neuroplasticity and enhance the "unlearning" of maladaptive habitual ways of relating to the to the world. I have a K08 Career Development Award to measure how attention modulates neuroplasticity induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, using EEG steady-state visual evoked potentials and visual attention psychophysics. I have a Brain Behavior Research Foundation Young Investigator Award to develop in-human applications of transcranial ultrasound stimulation in the subcortical visual system and fear regulation circuit. I have a Simons Foundation Bridge to independence Award to develop closed-loop ultrasound neuromodulation technologies to enhance behavioral flexibility in autism spectrum disorders. I work closely with mentors Anthony Norcia, Kim Butts Pauly, and Nolan Williams on these projects. I am interested in the neural basis of mindfulness, concentration, and compassion practices from Buddhist meditation, and I have more than a year of silent retreat experience in the Theravada Buddhist meditation tradition. I see patients in the Stanford Neuropsychiatry clinic with a specialization in Functional Neurological disorders and related psychosomatic and dissociative conditions. My therapeutic orientations include integrated psychodynamic- and mindfulness-based approaches and neuromodulation-assisted psychotherapy.
