This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a treatment called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), which uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate a specific part of your brain called the cerebellum. The goal is to see whether this treatment can help people recover thinking, memory, and concentration problems that often occur after a stroke. Researchers want to find out if the treatment works and whether it is safe.
Many stroke survivors struggle with thinking and memory problems that affect their daily lives, and there are limited treatment options available. This trial exists to explore whether this noninvasive brain stimulation technique could offer hope for recovery and improve quality of life after stroke.

You will come to the research center twice a day for 5 consecutive days to receive the brain stimulation treatment. Each session involves placing a magnetic coil against your scalp over the cerebellum area; the procedure is noninvasive and painless. Half of participants will receive the actual treatment, while the other half will receive a placebo (sham) stimulation that looks and feels the same, so you won't know which group you're in.
