Brain intervention study for breast cancer survivors in Finland. Did you notice a change in your thinking after your breast cancer? Try our neural cap; it may help boost your thinking! This study looks at how the brain changes after breast cancer and whether transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) can improve thinking skills.

tDCS is a safe, painless method that gently stimulates the brain using electrodes on the scalp. Know more about the device and how it works here. The study runs for 11 weeks, including a 6‑week intervention. Breast cancer survivors* are randomly assigned to either real stimulation or placebo (no stimulation), and neither you nor the researchers will know which group you’re in.
