What the study is about

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).

Being studied: Strategic Memory Advanced Reasoning Training teaches meta-cognitive strategies for individuals to apply to their daily lives for improved performance

Conditions: Healthy Lifestyle; Health-Related Behavior
