Longitudinal Study Examining At-Home tDCS
This study follows people with Alzheimer's or other dementia who choose to use a tDCS device at home on their own. tDCS delivers a mild electrical current to the scalp. Researchers are not assigning the treatment — participants have already decided to use it themselves. The team advises them on setup, trains them, and collects monthly reports for at least two years. This is a Phase NA observational study, meaning it is tracking real-world use rather than running a controlled experiment.
You may qualify if
- Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease or other form of dementia (e.g., Primary Progressive Aphasia)
You're excluded if
- Metal in the head or other factors that would make stimulation unsafe
