First seen Mar 23, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study aimed to see if rhythmic electrical stimulation of the brain could improve working memory in people with drug-resistant epilepsy. Researchers planned to use electrodes already placed in the brain for epilepsy surgery to deliver tiny zaps and measure memory performance. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
