Zapping the brain to fight cigarette cravings

NCT ID NCT05766254

Summary

This study aims to find the most effective spot in the brain to stimulate with a non-invasive magnet (TMS) to help people with nicotine addiction. Researchers will test four different brain targets in 36 smokers to see which one best changes how the brain responds to rewards and makes decisions. The goal is to gather knowledge that could help design future treatments, but this study itself is not testing a treatment for quitting.
