Summary

This study is testing a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can improve movement and thinking problems in children aged 10-15 who have had a mild traumatic brain injury or concussion. The researchers will use brain scans and physical tests to measure changes in brain communication and motor skills. The goal is to find a safe way to help kids recover more fully from concussion symptoms.
