DEVICE

Active RS-tDCS +At-Home Manual Dexterity Training

Bilateral M1-SO electrode placement; Active= anodal 2.0 mA dose × 20 minutes

DEVICE

Sham RS-tDCS +At-Home Manual Dexterity Training

"Designed to ensure blinding, includes initial and ending ramp-up/down stimulation for 60 seconds"

OTHER

Manual dexterity training

Manual dexterity training will be based on the at-home study in MS by Kamm and colleagues, where the training was completed by participants in their homes and demonstrated to be superior to strength training.
