Summary

This study tests whether a low-level electric current applied to a specific brain area can improve verbal retrieval (word-finding) in military veterans who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. Researchers will compare changes in memory tests over several months between those receiving the stimulation and a control group. The goal is to see if this non-invasive technique can ease the frustrating symptom of forgetting words.
