- There are many things to learn, but who
has the time?
Goal: Search for a more efficient method
of learning
How to reach our goal? Enhance the physical
& mental abilities
Test time: 6 weeks

3. Implementation
tDCS - Brain stimulation
via electrodes
- Why tDCS? Testing to see if running
a small electrical current through the
cortex of the brain enhance cognitive
properties?
Nootropics - Cognitive
enhancing drugs
- Why nootropics? Testing to see if
drugs actually have cognitive enhancing
properties.

4. Testing
IQ Tests: Cambridge Brain Sciences
- Testing 4 categories (memory, reasoning, concentration,
planning)
- Will take 2 tests from each testing category once a
week (preferred on Saturdays), for four consecutive
weeks
- Weeks 1 & 6 are for taking the complete IQ
challenge test and recording the score

5. Participants will record each score in the field provide
IQ Challenge Spreadsheet

6. Testing
Happiness survey: Track
Your Happiness.org
- Participants will receive 2
text notifications each
day to measure their
happiness (5o samples for a
full measure)
- Our hypothesis is that
enhancing learning &
memory, will increase
general happiness.

7. Why tDCS?
Transcranial direct-current stimulation has
proven to be an effective method for alleviating
depression, enhancing coordination,
mathematical skills, language-learning ability,
and much more.
Can it be implemented outside of a lab setting
to enhance the average person’s learning ability?

8. Why nootropics?
Nootropics are constantly being revealed to
be a newfound “limitless drug”. In Russia,
they are currently used to slow down the
path of Alzheimer’s.
Ranging from blocking receptors that make
you tired, to increasing cerebral blood
flow, nootropics seem to be a great choice
for finding safer methods for cognitive
enhancement.

9. Future Directions
If CuriousHumans obtains significant learning and
mental adaptation improvement, many more
studies of brain enhancement will be sure to
come.
We want to help build future pathways for the
human species to grow, no matter how small.
Remain curious with us, and reality will unfold in
a wonderful direction!
