Summary

This study tests whether using a gentle brain-stimulation device (tDCS) at home can safely reduce depression symptoms, compared to receiving the same treatment in a clinic. About 198 adults with major depression will use the device daily for a few weeks. The goal is to see if home treatment works as well and if a faster schedule is even better.
