NCT ID NCT07339072

First seen Jan 16, 2026 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study tests a new method called temporal interference (TI) that uses electrical currents to stimulate deep brain areas without surgery. Thirty healthy adults aged 18-50 will receive TI stimulation while their brain activity is measured with fMRI. The goal is to understand how deep brain regions control thinking and behavior, which could lead to future treatments for conditions like addiction, OCD, and Parkinson's disease.
