Study Summary

Tobacco use is one of the most significant cancer control and public health challenges in the US today. Half of all smokers in the US will attempt to quit tobacco each year, but fully 95% of those who attempt to quit will reverse this decision within 12 months and choose the transient, albeit immediately rewarding activity of smoking at the cost of much larger long-term rewards such as future health and long life. This project seeks to improve scientific knowledge of these decision-making processes and potentially improve the treatment of tobacco dependence by examining the feasibility of using a brain stimulation technique, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation or rTMS to improve the efficacy of an existing evidence-based relapse prevention intervention. rTMS is an FDA-cleared treatment for medication resistant depression and is being examined as a treatment for a variety of other disorders. This study will utilize an intensity and duration of rTMS that is well within the safety parameters and similar in location and intensity to that used in previous studies with smokers to reduce cigarette consumption.
