Tokyo, May 28 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061711) titled 'Effects of gamma transcranial alternating current stimulation over the posterior parietal cortex on episodic memory retention following semantic exposure' on May 27.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Parallel Randomization - Randomized Blinding - Double blind -all involved are blinded Control - Placebo

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Niigata University of Health and Welfare

Condition: Condition - Health adults Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - To investigate whether gamma-band (40 Hz) transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) applied bilaterally over the posterior parietal cortex immediately after learning modulates the long-term retention and memory stabilization processes of initially learned episodic memories under conditions of exposure to semantically related subsequent information. Basic objectives2 - Efficacy

Intervention: Interventions/Control_1 - Gamma (40 Hz) transcranial alternating current stimulation over the bilateral posterior parietal cortices Interventions/Control_2 - 1Hz transcranial alternating current stimulation over the bilateral posterior parietal cortices

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 18 years-old = Gender - Male and Female Key inclusion criteria - Native Japanese speakers, non-smokers, and right-handed individuals with normal or corrected-to-normal vision and no history of neurological injury or psychiatric disorders. Key exclusion criteria - Individuals with a history of severe head injury, metallic implants in the head, epileptic seizures, skin disorders around the stimulation site, or the use of psychotropic medications will be excluded. Target Size - 60
