Summary

This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation (tDCS) combined with computer-based brain games can improve attention, memory, and decision-making in veterans aged 65 and older who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. Participants will do exercises from home over several weeks, with some receiving real stimulation and others a placebo. The goal is to see if this approach is both effective and practical for seniors.
