About
Regan King is a leading researcher in pediatric neuromodulation, specializing in the safety and application of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in children. Their major contribution lies in establishing the safety profile of these technologies in developing brains, a critical step for advancing both clinical and research applications. King’s landmark study, “Safety and tolerability of transcranial magnetic and direct current stimulation in children: Prospective single center evidence from 3.5 million stimulations” (2019), has garnered 163 citations, providing the largest prospective evidence base to date. This work demonstrated that NIBS is well-tolerated in pediatric populations, with minimal adverse effects, thereby validating its use for investigating neurophysiology and treating conditions like epilepsy, autism, and ADHD. King’s foundational research has paved the way for broader adoption of brain stimulation in children, directly impacting clinical trial design and therapeutic protocols. Their earlier work, “Non-invasive brain stimulation is safe in children: Evidence from 3 million stimulations” (2018), further reinforced these findings. By rigorously documenting safety across millions of stimulations, King has become a trusted authority, enabling researchers and clinicians to explore brain modulation in pediatric populations with confidence.
