Wakefulness delta waves increase after cortical plasticity induction

Highlights • iTBS-induced (intermittent theta burst stimulation) plasticity increases delta EEG. • Delta waves emerge as effectors of cortical plasticity in wakefulness besides sleep. • In patients affected by brain lesions, the meaning of slow EEG waves can be reinterpreted.
