Study Summary

This trial aims to understand how transcranial electric stimulation affects attention and brain activity in healthy adults. The researchers want to know if the stimulation affects how people pay attention and if mathematical models can predict changes

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults aged 18-45 who can perform cognitive tasks. It's not suitable for those with cognitive or motor function disorders, scalp issues, head injuries with lasting effects, seizure history, or those on certain medications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how transcranial electric stimulation (tES) affects attention and brain activity in healthy adults. Participants undergo EEG recording while relaxed, during stimulation, and when doing computerized cognitive tasks.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of tES may include discomfort at the electrode site, mild headaches, nausea or dizziness during or after stimulation. Sham treatment should have no side effects as it's an inactive procedure.
