fun with TMS

inducing autistic-savant skills? (NYT)

(I don't see new research since last year (see Allan Snyder's recent publications), but the article is more fun.)

TMS is still a little too weird for me to want to try it myself, but I'm getting more and more intrigued.

Yeah, I've wanted to do that kind of stuff since I learned of it several years ago. I hadn't heard about the autistic-savant induction, but the fact that you could have temporary aphasia, for instance, is fascinating to me.
