DEVICE

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)

"A light electrical current with zero frequency (tDCS) will be applied to the scalp of the participants via 2 electrodes, while the participants performs cognitive exercises with the guidance of a trained research assistant. They have the option of having their choice of music play in the background while they perform the cognitive exercise.~cognitive exercises Participant will perform memory and learning games/tasks through Mind Triggers app on an IPad and other cognitive games. Participants will be guided by a highly trained research assistant."

DEVICE

30 Hz Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS)

"A light electrical current with 30 Hz frequency (tACS) will be applied to the scalp of the participants via 2 electrodes, while the participants performs cognitive exercises with the guidance of a trained research assistant. They have the option of having their choice of music play in the background while they perform the cognitive exercise.~cognitive exercises Participant will perform memory and learning games/tasks through Mind Triggers app on an IPad and other cognitive games. Participants will be guided by a highly trained research assistant."

DEVICE

50 Hz Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS)

"A light electrical current with 50 Hz frequency (tACS) will be applied to the scalp of the participants via 2 electrodes, while the participants performs cognitive exercises with the guidance of a trained research assistant. They have the option of having their choice of music play in the background while they perform the cognitive exercise.~cognitive exercises Participant will perform memory and learning games/tasks through Mind Triggers app on an IPad and other cognitive games. Participants will be guided by a highly trained research assistant."

DEVICE

70 Hz Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS)
