Exploring Brain Stimulation for Reading and Language Skills

Recruiting
18-30 years
All
Phase N/A
  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

Study Purpose: This research aims to see how transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) affects reading and language skills. TMS is a method that uses magnetic fields to temporarily change how parts of the brain work.

Key Study Involves:

  • Reading and language tests
  • Getting an MRI scan
  • Receiving TMS treatment

Eligibility: You can join if you are 18-30 years old, right-handed, have average or better reading skills, and speak English as your first language. Those with certain health issues, learning disabilities, or metal objects in their body cannot participate.

  • This study will involve several visits to the research center.
  • There are no mentioned risks, but TMS and MRI are generally safe.
  • No compensation details are provided in the description, so you may want to ask the study team about this.
