Brain stimulation with reading help for children with dyslexia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether pairing a gentle brain stimulation technique with structured reading instruction can improve reading skills in children with dyslexia. It aims to find a new way to support reading development.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 7 and 17 years old.
- Your child has dyslexia or reading difficulties that make them behind grade level; a formal diagnosis is not needed.
- Your child is currently getting or can get structured reading instruction during the trial.
- A parent or guardian can give permission, and your child is willing to take part.
- Your child does not have epilepsy, seizures, skin issues at the electrode sites, or implanted electronic devices that could be affected.

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 tests whether a safe, non-drug brain stimulation approach can help adults better understand what they read. It aims to see if the treatment improves reading comprehension and related thinking skills.
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 combines a non-invasive brain stimulation technique with reading and motor exercises to see if it can improve reading and motor skills in 9-year-old boys with dyslexia and fine motor difficulties. It may help if your child struggles with reading and coordination.
This study tests whether a specific kind of brain stimulation can improve reading skills and reading-related abilities in children and teens with dyslexia. It may help by strengthening brain systems involved in reading accuracy and speed.
This study uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta-burst stimulation to understand how it affects reading and language networks. It may help researchers learn more about how the brain processes reading in healthy young adults.
