Zapping the brain to boost focus? scientists investigate

NCT ID NCT04885322

Summary

This study aims to understand how a mild, non-invasive form of brain stimulation (tDCS) affects thinking skills like focus and self-control in healthy adults. Researchers will measure brain activity and performance on computer tasks to see if stimulating the forehead area improves these abilities compared to stimulating a different brain area or a fake stimulation. The goal is basic research to learn more about how the healthy brain works, not to treat any medical condition.
