During active stimulation, the current will be active for the full 20 minutes.~Subjects will also undergo 20 minutes of transcranial ultrasound. During active stimulation, the ultrasound will be active for the full 20 minutes."

DEVICE

Sham low-intensity transcranial electrical stimulation/sham transcranial ultrasound

"Subjects will undergo 20 minutes of low-intensity transcranial electrical stimulation, as in the active condition; however, during sham stimulation (placebo) the current will not be active for the full 20 minutes.~Subjects will also undergo 20 minutes of transcranial ultrasound in the same par.
