Summary
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS in 16 people with degenerative ataxia, a rare condition that affects balance and coordination. Researchers will use motion sensors and brain recordings to see if stimulating the cerebellum can improve walking and movement. The goal is to find a new way to ease symptoms, not to cure the disease.
