Zapping away chemo brain: new study tests brain stimulation for cancer survivors

This small pilot study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation method called iTBS could help cancer survivors who struggle with memory, focus, and word-finding after chemotherapy (often called 'chemo brain'). Fifteen adults who had completed cancer treatment received the stimulation, and researchers measured changes in their thinking skills and brain chemistry. The goal was to see if this approach is feasible and might ease cognitive symptoms.
