Study Summary

This study will take a basic neuroscience approach to investigate pathological mechanisms underlying PTSD. Additionally, the study aims to identify how Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) brain stimulation can modulate and correct neural networks and related emotions of anxious arousal and hypervigilance, with the goal of assessing tACS brain stimulation technology as a novel intervention for symptoms of anxiety.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS)
  • DEVICE Sham for Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS)
  • DEVICE Transcranial Random Noise stimulation (tRNS)
