Summary

This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) combined with computer-based thinking exercises can improve attention, memory, and problem-solving in children aged 8 to 17 who were exposed to alcohol before birth. About 70 kids will be randomly assigned to receive either real or fake stimulation during training sessions. The goal is to see if this approach can ease some of the thinking and learning challenges linked to Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders.
