New treatment option for Effects of Cerebellar Stimulation on Brain Activation
Official title Cerebellar Involvement in Cognitive Sequencing
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06108336
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Although there is increasing recognition that the cerebellum is involved in cognition as well as motor function, the manner in which the cerebellum contributes to cognition is uncertain. One theory that might account for both motor and cognitive contributions of the cerebellum is that the cerebellum is involved in sequencing of relevant events or stimuli.
