Summary

Investigating modulation of motor cortex excitability by transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation.

Conditions

  • Motor Activity
  • Motor Neuroplasticity

Interventions

DEVICE

anodal tDCS

The participant will receive anodal tDCS with 2 mA for 10 minutes on the left motor cortex.

DEVICE

cathodal tDCS

The participant will receive cathodal tDCS with -2 mA for 10 minutes on the left motor cortex.

DEVICE

sham tDCS

The participant will receive sham tDCS with 2 mA for 40 seconds on the left motor cortex which mimics the skin sensations as active tDCS interventions.
