Summary

This study tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS to see if it can reduce movement problems in people with a rare condition called MSA-C (a type of multiple system atrophy that affects coordination). About 30 adults who can walk with or without help will receive either real or fake stimulation over several sessions. Researchers will measure changes in walking and other motor tasks using digital sensors and clinical scales.
