New Recruiting Trial: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Children With Autism
WHY IT MATTERS
This trial offers families with autistic children a chance to explore a non-medication brain stimulation approach that may help with core autism symptoms, with enrollment actively opening at a major research institution.
Researchers at New York State Institute for Basic Research are testing a new treatment called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in children with autism. This treatment uses mild electrical currents applied to the scalp to potentially help with autism symptoms. The study is now accepting children to participate and will begin in April 2026.
