INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The objective of this study is to determine the effects of a 6-month, home-based personalized transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) intervention targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on cognitive function, dual task standing and walking, and other metrics of mobility in older adults with motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR).

Interventions
Home-based transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) tailored to target the left dlPFC.
Stimulation administered in very low-level currents (0.5 mA total) designed to not significantly influence cortical tissue, but still mimic the cutaneous sensations induced by tDCS.
