Exercise and brain stimulation study for healthy adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how a gentle electrical current applied to the head (called brain stimulation) combined with exercise affects your body and mood. It may help researchers understand how these two treatments work together to improve brain health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a healthy adult between 18 and 50 years old.
- You are not currently taking any medications that affect your brain or nervous system (like antidepressants, sedatives, or stimulants).
- You do not have any metal implants in your head, a pacemaker, or a history of seizures.
- You are not a regular smoker and drink fewer than 10 alcoholic beverages per week.

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.
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (called tDCS) affects heart and blood vessel function in older adults. It might help improve heart health, and participation involves receiving the stimulation while your heart activity is monitored.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation, combined with stepping exercises, can help improve walking and thinking in older adults with mild dementia. If you qualify, you may receive this combination therapy for free and help us learn if it works.
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.
This study tests a gentle brain stimulation method called High-Definition Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (HD-tES) to see if it can help reduce anxiety symptoms in people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It uses small electrodes on the scalp to deliver mild electrical currents to areas of the brain involved in anxiety, without surgery or major side effects.
This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation method over two weeks to see if it improves memory and thinking in healthy young and older adults. It aims to help understand if this technique could benefit cognitive function.
