Summary
This study tests whether a safe, at-home brain stimulation method called tDCS can help people with depression that hasn't improved with standard treatments. Ten adults with major depression will use a headset at home for 20-minute sessions, five times a week for two weeks, while being monitored remotely. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible, safe, and can reduce depressive symptoms, with in-person visits required in San Diego.
