Summary

This study tests a new method called temporal interference (TI) that uses electrical currents to stimulate deep brain areas without surgery. Researchers will measure brain activity in 30 healthy adults using MRI scans. The goal is to understand how deep brain regions work and lay the groundwork for future treatments for conditions like addiction, OCD, and Parkinson's disease.
