UT Dallas Researcher Secures Grant to Explore Brain Stimulation for Cognitive Issues in Multiple Sclerosis Patients

Written By Kathleen Otto

Dr. John Hart Jr. at the University of Texas at Dallas has secured a $1.6 million grant from the Department of Defense to investigate the potential of low-level electrical brain stimulation in addressing cognitive issues among multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. As the Distinguished Chair in Neuroscience, Dr. Hart aims to validate the effectiveness of high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) for MS patients experiencing difficulties in word retrieval over a three-year period.
