Study Summary
The purpose of this project is to understand how reading is related to brain function. To do this, participants will perform some reading tasks and then have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans. Participants will then receive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the reading areas of the brain, followed by a second MRI brain scan. This will temporarily activate reading abilities. We want to better understand how the reading system in the brain functions.
Primary Outcome
Subjects will complete one computerized lexical decision making task before and after TMS stimulation in order to assess change in lexical decision making ability 10mins post stimulation. Subjects will see a word cue on the screen and asked to judge with a button press if the word cue is a "real word" or "not a real word."
