Brief Summary: In this pilot study, the investigators propose to test the efficacy of rTMS for the treatment of PCCI. Efficacy measures will include baseline and post-rTMS neuropsychological testing, functional MRI and biometry data using body worn sensors.
Detailed Description: Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a safe and non-invasive brain stimulation technique. It uses a magnetic coil to stimulate brain tissue painlessly using only a magnet (no electrodes or electrical wires) in a procedure that does not involve any surgery or sedation. TMS is currently FDA approved to treat depression and migraines. Although this technology is applicable to many other brain conditions as well, it has not been systematically examined in individuals with "Chemo-brain". Chemo-brain or Post-Chemotherapy Cognitive Impairment (PCCI) is defined as cognitive changes including impairment of memory, learning, concentration, reasoning, executive function, attention and visuo visio-spatial skills that occur during or after chemotherapy treatment.

In this study, investigators will:

1. use high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of individuals' brains to determine precisely where to place the TMS magnetic coil in order to stimulate the target brain region based off their unique brain structure.
2. use TMS to stimulate the target region of the brain.
3. take high-resolution MRI pictures of the brain both baseline and post-TMS to study whether the brain activity of the target region changes as a result of the TMS stimulation.
4. perform neuropsychological tasks baseline and post-TMS to study if performance is improved following stimulation of the target brain region.
5. collect data from completing Frailty assessments, baseline and post-TMS.
6. study the short-term and long-term treatment effects.
7. collect subject's daily activity and sleep/wake patterns from watch style device (http://www.actigraphy.com/solutions/actiwatch/actiwatch-plus-specifications.html).
8. perform behavioral assessments, baseline and post-TMS, to study whether there are measurable changes following stimulation of the target brain region.
