About

Marta Bortoletto is a leading figure in cognitive neuroscience, whose work has fundamentally shaped how we understand and measure brain connectivity using non-invasive techniques. Her primary research focuses on the intersection of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG), a powerful combination for causally probing brain circuits. Bortoletto’s major contribution lies in establishing the methodological rigor essential for this field. She is the driving force behind a landmark 2019 paper, "Reproducibility in TMS–EEG studies: A call for data sharing, standard procedures and effective experimental control," which has garnered over 150 citations. This work, alongside her other highly cited studies, exposed critical sources of artifact and ambiguity in TMS-EEG data, providing the community with a clear roadmap for valid experimental design. By championing open data and standardized protocols, Bortoletto has not only advanced the reliability of her own findings but has also built the foundational framework that allows other researchers to trust and replicate results. Her achievements have been pivotal in transforming TMS-EEG from a promising technique into a robust tool for studying the human brain.
