Modulation of Brain Oscillations Underlying Working Memory
Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital
Summary
This study will use novel transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) protocols and electroencephalography (EEG) to modulate and measure brain oscillations that underlie working memory. tACS is a noninvasive method used to modulate the timing and patterns of brain rhythms via weak electric currents passed through electrodes on the scalp.
Official title: State-dependent Modulation of Interactions of Theta and Gamma Rhythms in Working Memory
