Modulation of Spontaneous Cortical Activity by tDCS: BRAIN Initiative I

Principal Investigator: Tony Wilson, Ph.D.

The purpose of this study is to measure the effects of aging on brain activity and to use a therapeutic technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Participants will have electrodes placed on their heads while completing a numbering ordering task, then they will undergo a non-invasive magnetoencephalography (MEG) scan while performing visual and attention tasks.
