Trial Description
Hvidovre Hospital is looking for participants for a new project, which seeks to evaluate the efficacy of widely used non-invasive brain stimulation modality, transcranial alternating current stimulation, using a more systematic approach in larger scalp area. The study is harmless and safe. You can participate if you:

- Have self-reported medical conditions that may interfere with the study (e.g., epilepsy, heart disease).
- Have previously been diagnosed a neurological or psychiatric condition.
- Use medication which may have cognitive effects (e.g., stimulants, antidepressants, neuroleptics).

- Have had previous craniotomy or other acute neurosurgical interventions.
- Have claustrophobia, pacemakers, implanted electronic devices, metal in the body (e.g., pacemaker, deep brain stimulator, cochlear implant), or other contraindications for MR scans.
- Have an alcohol intake exceeding 28 units per week, smoking more than 20 cigarettes per day.
- Use illicit substances in the week prior to the experimental session.
- If you don’t wish to be informed about incidental health findings from the MRI.
