Menstrual cycle phase alters corticospinal excitability and spike-timing-dependent plasticity in healthy females The known fluctuations in ovarian hormone concentrations across the eumenorrheic menstrual cycle contribute to modulations in cortical excitability and inhibition. However, how such changes affect spi...

Preprint is up for the first of my PhD studies on the menstrual cycle and its effects on cortical excitability and neuroplasticty. Feedback welcome!

What a week at @ecssofficial.bsky.social 2025 in Rimini!

I had the pleasure of delivering my oral presentation as part of the 'Neuromuscular function across the menstrual cycle' session.

Thanks to my colleagues @nuneurofunc.bsky.social for making this week such an enjoyable experience!
