Stimulating the brain during cognitive training 25th May 2014

I am an undergraduate medical student at Jesus College, and I am currently looking to recruit participants of age 50 and above for a research project at the Department of Experimental Psychology in Oxford. Stimulating the brain during cognitive training

We are recruiting participants (aged 50-80 in good health) for a study that assesses that effect of mild, painless transcranial current stimulation on cognitive abilities during a fun and engaging cognitive training programme. This study will take up to 5 hours over 3 days within a week. All participants will receive £50. For further information, please email brainfhsproject@gmail.com or phone 07546366555 (Lish).
