Transcranial direct current stimulation involves the application of weak electrical currents to the brain and has demonstrated a capacity to to enhance cognitive performance. This thesis sought to optimise the efficacy of this technique through the use of novel multi-channel stimulation montages, whilst also exploring the neurobiological effects of stimulation on the brain.
