Study Summary
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technology that has demonstrated the ability to temporarily increase or decrease activity in specific regions of the brain. The researchers are investigating the effect of this technology on sleep propensity by applying two different types of stimulation as well as sham (Placebo) stimulation during three different afternoon naps. The researchers are subsequently hoping to recruit healthy volunteers without medical, or sleep problems who have a regular sleep schedule to participate in the study
