Study Summary

This study will test the tolerability and preliminary efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with a cognitive training program, remotely-delivered using a telemedicine protocol in 60 adults with multiple sclerosis (MS). The study will evaluate the efficacy of tDCS to evaluate two of the most debilitating symptoms of MS: cognitive impairment and fatigue.

Primary Outcome

80% is equivalent to n=16 of the targeted 20 transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) or sham tDCS sessions.
