Summary

This study tests if synchronizing magnetic brain stimulation with specific brain wave patterns can improve treatment for stimulant use disorder. Researchers will enroll 50 adults currently in treatment and abstinent for at least two weeks, plus up to 10 healthy controls. Participants will receive MRI scans and then be randomly assigned to one of three timing methods for the stimulation. The goal is to see which timing approach produces the best brain and behavioral responses.
