Conversion disorder refers to impaired voluntary motor or sensory functions that are not compatible with a well-known neurological condition. This disorder affects up to 30% of hospitalized patients i...
The purpose of this study is to confirm the analgesic effect of tDCS in neuropathic chronic pain, to estimate the importance and the duration of this effect, and to improve its efficiency by the use a...
Virtual reality as a gaming method is being used more regularly due to its immersive environments and total body playability. A few studies have used VR paired with brain stimulation as a clinical tre...
Cannabis use disorder is a frequent comorbidity of schizophrenia, associated with increased symptoms and less adherence to therapy. Validated care has limited effectiveness in this population and deve...
This study aims to verify transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS) efficacy for Parkinson's disease (PD)-related dysphagia and its mechanism. Subjects are randomly split into two groups: control ...
This is a randomized placebo-controlled trial of cognitive training with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for children and adolescents (ages 8 - 17 years) with prenatal alcohol exposure ...
There is currently little symptomatic therapy for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and nothing effective for individuals with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). However, neuromodulation with transcranial direct c...
The overall goal of this study is to investigate the added benefit of a neuromodulation intervention in individuals under buprenorphine maintenance treatment for OUD (bOUD)....
The aim of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of a new treatment for chemsex or "chemical sex", the use of psychoactive substances to modify sexual experience and performance. This treatment, c...
The investigators have designed a pragmatic trial of home-based transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for phantom limb pain (PLP), the PLP-EVEREST trial (PLP-EffectiVEness pRagmatic Stimulati...
This project investigates an innovative combination of non-invasive neuromodulation (transcranial direct current stimulation - tDCS) and cognitive training as a novel treatment approach aimed at impro...

The goal of this study is to to evaluate the effect and feasibility of a rehabilitation protocol with prismatic lenses associated with tDCS, compared to a prismatic lens rehabilitation protocol associ...
Cognitive impairment (CI) affects a large amount of patients with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS) even in the early stages of the disease, increasing the perception of fatigue and compromising the quality o...
The purpose of this study is to evaluate tDCS combined with cognitive-motor training on dual-task interference during dual-task walking, dual-task foot pedaling and the corresponding alterations of br...
The purpose of this study is to better understand the neural correlates of higher-order cognition, both in the healthy brain and in schizophrenia, and to determine how these mechanisms are modulated b...
Orthorexia Nervosa (ON); is a condition characterized by individuals being overly focused on healthy eating habits, constantly checking and classifying the foods they will consume. ON has not yet been...
This study will examine changes in synaptic density with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the brains of patients with schizophrenia. Synaptic density levels will be measured using a n...
The investigators will conduct a randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled trial of approximately 60 patients with minor stroke and post-stroke mild cognitive impairment (psMCI). Participants will b...
Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA) is a syndrome due to different neurodegenerative disorders selectively disrupting language functions. PPA specialist care is underdeveloped. There are very few specia...
