"Cathodal tDCS of the lateral hypothalamus-cognitive or medial hypothalamus-cognitive network.~The total injected current will never go beyond 4 milliamp, which will be split among the different stimulation electrodes."

DEVICE

transcranial direct current stimulation

Single blind sham stimulation (ramp-up ramp-down stimulation will be applied for 30 seconds)
