First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study tests whether a gentle, noninvasive electrical current applied to the scalp can improve speech fluency in adults who stutter. Researchers will use personalized brain stimulation while participants read aloud in unison with a recording, a technique known to reduce stuttering temporarily. The goal is to see if this approach strengthens brain communication and leads to lasting fluency improvements. 80 adults who stutter will take part.
