Summary
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can improve memory and daily living skills in veterans who had a mild traumatic brain injury more than a year ago. About 41 participants will receive either real tDCS or a sham (fake) version while doing memory training. The goal is to see if the stimulation boosts cognitive function and to find brain signals that predict who benefits most.
