Zapping the brain without breaking the skin: new study explores Non-Invasive deep stimulation
NCT ID NCT07339072
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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.
