Brain Stimulation to Improve Language Skills
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial random noise stimulation can help improve how quickly and accurately you perform language tasks. Researchers will measure your performance on language exercises before and after the stimulation.

This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help improve how your brain learns letters and sounds, and how well you read. You'll receive mild electrical stimulation to your scalp while learning letter-sound pairs, and researchers will use MRI scans to see how your brain responds.
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 people learn language using brain-and-movement training (including tasks during brain scans and non-drug brain stimulation for some parts). It may help researchers understand learning and how the brain adapts during new language practice.
This study tests whether combining a gentle brain stimulation technique with structured language-learning sessions can help adults improve their language skills. It might be an option if you are interested in boosting your language learning.
This study tests a form of brain stimulation (TMS) in people who had a stroke affecting the left side of the brain. It aims to understand whether stimulation can help with language processing tasks at least a month after stroke.
This trial tests a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation called tDCS to see if it can help improve language control in people with primary progressive aphasia. It is done in a hospital in Nice, France.
