At-Home brain zaps show promise for stroke and brain disease recovery

This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can be used at home to boost recovery of memory, language, and thinking skills in people with stroke, brain tumors, or neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. Participants will use a headset that delivers a mild electrical current while doing guided activities. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and effective for improving daily function and quality of life.
