About this study

In plain language

This study tests whether brain activity measures can help identify thinking problems across different health conditions. It uses thinking tasks, brain activity recording, and TMS, which uses magnets to stimulate part of the brain. It is for people with long-term pain or depression, and healthy people for comparison.

The overall objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of identifying transdiagnostic biomarkers of cognitive function mediated by neuromodulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex that are translatable across disease groups in order to more accurately phenotype clusters of cognitive dysfunction. Completing behavioral paradigms with electrophysiology and TMS is a challenging frontier. This study focuses on the feasibility of such an endeavor for those with chronic pain or depression as well as healthy controls.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
