First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a safe, low-dose electrical brain stimulation technique called tDCS to see if it can reduce the loudness and distress of tinnitus (ringing in the ears). Forty adults with tinnitus will receive multiple sessions, and researchers will measure changes in symptoms and brain activity. The goal is to gather the information needed to design a larger, more definitive clinical trial.
