Brain stimulation and practice study for healthy young adults
This study tests if a type of brain stimulation called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve how well you learn a hand movement task. You will practice a motor task while receiving brief magnetic pulses to your scalp.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a healthy adult between 18 and 35 years old.
- You are right-handed.
- You have normal or corrected vision and hearing.
- You have no metal implants or medical devices in your head or neck.
- You are not taking medications that affect your seizure threshold or brain activity.

This study looks at how your brain's electrical activity relates to its structure using safe, non-invasive techniques (TMS, EEG, and MRI). It's a chance to learn more about how the healthy brain works, and you'll be asked to have brain scans and a mild stimulation session.
This study uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to see if it can improve how people learn and make decisions. It is for healthy adults who are right-handed.
This study tests how a mild electrical brain stimulation called tDCS might help healthy young adults learn new motor skills. You'll receive either active or sham tDCS while practicing a hand movement task over 4 weeks.
This study uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) to understand how the brain controls movement and learning. Researchers will measure changes in your brain's electrical activity while you play a video game, which may help them understand how the brain learns new motor skills.
This trial tests if combining transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with arm and hand exercises helps people recover upper limb function after a first stroke. It is for adults who can follow instructions and have no metal in their head or a pacemaker.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation. Researchers want to understand how to make it work better and safer in humans.
