MINDED Study
03 January 2024
We are now conducting a study of a new intervention for people affected by overweight or obesity who are looking for support to lose weight and improve their mood. This new treatment combines transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a safe and non-invasive form of brain stimulation, combined with guided mindfulness training. Both tDCS and mindfulness training have been shown to have a positive impact on eating behaviours and mood when used on their own.
Requirements
- You may take part in MINDED if you are 18 to 60 years of age, and your body mass index is greater than or equal to 25 kg/m2 (overweight or obese). You must have access to a laptop or desktop computer with webcam.
