First seen May 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests whether combining a personalized cognitive training program with a type of brain stimulation (called iTBS) can improve depression in people who have had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion). About 72 participants—including military members, veterans, and civilians—will receive either real or fake brain stimulation alongside the training over 4 weeks. Researchers will compare the groups to see if the combination leads to greater mood improvement.
