No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This project will investigate a novel strategy for enhancing cognitive training (CT). Specifically, the investigators aim to combine a non-invasive form of brain stimulation (tDCS) with CT. This study will examine the optimal time interval - whether tDCS should be administered either before or during CT.
