Mind over muscle: brain tech trial aims to tame uncontrollable voice

NCT ID NCT04421365

Summary

This study is testing a new brain-computer interface (BCI) treatment for laryngeal dystonia, a neurological disorder that causes involuntary voice spasms during speech. The BCI gives patients real-time feedback on their brain activity to help them learn to control the spasms. Researchers will enroll 40 adults to see if this high-tech approach is feasible and helps reduce voice breaks.
