RECRUITING

Exploring Neurophysiological Markers of Brain Health

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The combination of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG) has been suggested as a promising brain imaging tool for identifying biomarkers of brain health. In this pilot study, study investigators will explore the neurophysiological metrics of brain health with a non-invasive brain imaging technique, alongside behavioral and fMRI metrics collected through another study (NCT04869111).
