Community-based Cognitive Remediation and tDCS to Enhance Seniors' Function and Mental Health

"Cognitive Remediation (CR) is a well-established psychosocial group intervention that aims to improve neurocognitive abilities such as memory performance, executive functioning, processing speed, and attention.~Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation method that can be safely administered to awake outpatients. It does not require general anesthesia or surgical implantation. It utilizes low intensity electrical current (e.g., 2 mA) either to increase cortical excitability with an anodal electrode or to suppress cortical excitability with a cathodal electrode."
