NCT ID NCT05946616

First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 28, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at how the brain changes old movement memories, like a bad golf swing or piano technique. Researchers will use EEG to measure brain activity and apply gentle electrical stimulation to see if it helps people learn a new movement. The study involves 30 healthy adults, some over 60, and aims to understand how we can update well-practiced skills.
