An excellent way to find studies that investigate tACS is to search the official government database that contains both treatment clinical trials and basic science research studies. Try using the search term "transcranial alternating current stimulation".
Note to researchers: if you are currently running a tACS study and are recruiting participants, please contact us such that we can list your study.
Highlighted studies (currently enrolling):
GLAD 2 (UNC - Chapel Hill, NC) - Major Depressive Disorder
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to reduce symptoms associated with major depressive disorder. The initial screening will be done remotely, and, if eligible, up to 5 sessions of tACS will be administered in-person.
