Can zapping the brain help stroke survivors move better?

NCT ID NCT06599931

First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how a gentle electrical current applied to the brain (called tACS) affects movement in people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago. Researchers will test two different frequencies and a placebo to see which works best. They will use brain scans (MRI) and brain wave recordings (EEG) to understand the effects. About 45 people, including healthy volunteers, will take part.
