Cerebellar Functions in Visuomotor Adaptation

NCT04168086 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 45

Last updated 2019-11-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) will be used in this study to functions of the cerebellum in human motor learning. Participants will complete a visuomotor task while receiving stimulation pulses from tFUS. How tFUS stimulation influencing the acquisition and retention of motor memory will be assessed based on group comparison of behavioral measures such as reaching accuracy.

Interventions

OTHER

Focused Ultrasound

Low intensity focused ultrasound is sound energy stimulation at a low intensity of 1-30 W/cm2

OTHER

Sham

The investigators will simulate focused ultrasound stimulation similar to the experimental groups but without stimulation.
