Brain activity during new motor skill learning
This trial uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to see how the brain changes when learning a new movement. It is for healthy, right-handed adults who can safely receive TMS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are right-handed
- You are in good general health
- You can safely undergo transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) – for example, no metal in your head or history of seizures
- You are not pregnant

This study tests whether a brain-magnetic (TMS) training approach can improve how people learn and control movements. It’s done in healthy adults to understand how mental training affects motor learning.
This study uses brain imaging and stimulation to see how the brain connects language and movement. It may help improve how we learn motor skills and understand language.
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 a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) can help teenagers learn motor skills more effectively. It aims to understand how this safe, painless method might enhance learning in typically developing adolescents.
This study uses a reaching task and a brain stimulation method (TMS) to see which brain areas help sensory learning. It may help researchers understand how learning works in the brain and how to design better therapies, if needed.
