Brain stimulation and motor function study

Healthy

This study tests whether a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) can improve motor function in healthy adults. If you are right-handed, in good health, and have no neurological or major medical conditions, you may be eligible.

Brain stimulation trial for attention and thinking control

This study tests whether a non-painful brain stimulation method (tDCS) can improve attention and “thinking control,” and how brain activity changes during tasks. It also uses brain imaging (MRI), so safety and comfort conditions must be met.

Brain stimulation study for younger and older adults

This trial uses a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS to see how it affects how people process information. It may help researchers understand brain function in healthy younger and older adults.

Testing brain stimulation for posterior cortical atrophy

This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called HD-tDCS to see if it can help people with posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), a condition that affects vision and spatial skills. You would receive personalized stimulation sessions, and the study aims to learn if this treatment improves symptoms.

Brain plasticity study in mild memory loss

This study looks at how the brain changes in people with mild memory problems. It uses brain scans and a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation to see if we can improve brain function.

Brain stimulation to improve hand movement in chronic stroke

This study tests whether a brain stimulation technique called high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) can help improve hand and arm movement in people who had a stroke more than a year ago. The stimulation targets the parts of the brain that control movement, and the goal is to see if it can boost recovery when combined with standard therapy.

Brain stimulation study to change brain connections

This study tests whether a non-surgical brain stimulation technique (placing a gentle electrical current through the scalp) can change how different parts of the brain communicate. It may help researchers understand treatments for brain function—if you’re eligible and don’t have certain safety concerns.
