Read our Epilepsy research guide โThis study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporally-interfering electric fields stimulation (TIEFS) to understand how it affects brain activity and cognitive function like memory, attention, and language. Researchers want to learn whether this scalp-based electrical stimulation is safe, well-tolerated, and how it changes the way the brain works. The study includes both people with epilepsy who are already undergoing brain monitoring and healthy volunteers.
Current treatments for epilepsy and other brain conditions have limitations, and researchers are exploring new non-invasive ways to safely influence brain activity. This trial will help determine whether this stimulation technique could be a foundation for future brain-based treatments.

You will visit the research center for one or two sessions, each lasting up to three hours. During your visit, researchers will place electrodes on your scalp to deliver the brain stimulation at different frequencies, while recording your brain activity. You will also complete computer-based tasks that test memory, attention, language, and movement, and answer questions about how the stimulation feels.
