How concepts are represented in the human brain is fascinating, but remains a mystery. Our knowledge of the human brain is limited by the inherent limitations of the research techniques we can apply. General non-invasive measurements of brain activity, including electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), provide us with only rough information about neural activity due to limited spatiotemporal resolution, while non-invasive brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation do not offer sufficient spatial resolution to systematically modulate activity in specific subsets ...
