Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to compare motor learning rates on two different tasks, when combined with non-invasive brain stimulation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We will apply transcranial random noise stimulation or sham stimulation. During tRNS, participants will complete a grasping task or a reaching task. Each participant will complete both tasks, with a wait period between each task. Task order will be randomized, such that half the group will begin with each task. We will compare task scored before vs. after tRNS, for each task. This will be a measure of motor learning.
