About
Thais C. Marchetti is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotics and non-invasive brain stimulation, whose work is pioneering the automation of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Her primary research focuses on developing robotic–electronic platforms that enable autonomous, precise, and fast targeting of cortical structures, significantly improving the safety and efficacy of brain stimulation techniques. Marchetti’s major contribution is the integration of multi-locus TMS (mTMS) with robotic systems, allowing for electronic control of stimulation targeting without physical coil movement—a breakthrough that overcomes the constraints of manual handling and limited stimulation areas. Her most cited work, a 2024 paper on a robotic–electronic platform for autonomous TMS targeting, has garnered 20 citations, underscoring its impact. She also developed an open-source platform for robotized TMS (2021), promoting accessibility and reproducibility in the field. By combining robotics and electronics, Marchetti is advancing personalized brain stimulation, with potential applications in treating neurological and psychiatric disorders. Her innovative approach positions her as a key figure in the future of non-invasive brain modulation.
