Summary

The goal of this study is to investigate the impact of non-invasive brain stimulation on motor skill acquisition in healthy individuals. Participants performed a motor task with non-invasive brain stimulation applied over the area of the brain where movements were controlled. The study compared motor skill performance between with the active stimulation and the placebo stimulation.

Conditions

  • Motor Skill Acquisition in Healthy Older Adults
