Study Summary

This study uses a noninvasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to study hyperphagia and satiety in Prader-Willi syndrome. TMS is a noninvasive way of stimulating the brain, using a magnetic field to change activity in the brain. The magnetic field is produced by a coil that is held next to the scalp. In this study, the investigators will be stimulating the brain to learn more about how TMS might improve hyperphagia in Prader-Willi syndrome.

Primary Outcome

Retention of subjects for assessments at baseline and 1-week post-TMS follow-up visit, as measured by the percentage (%) of enrolled subjects who complete baseline assessments and then go on to complete the 1-week post-TMS follow-up visit.
