Study name	Modulating connectivity with non‐invasive brain stimulation during spatial neglect rehabilitation
Methods	RCT
Participants	30 to 80 years of age Subacute stroke (stroke occurred more than 2 weeks and less than 6 months ago; first or recurrent, ischaemic or intracerebral haemorrhagic lesion) Diagnosed visuospatial neglect and/or spatial neglect symptoms (left sided or right sided) on the basis of clinical judgement (i.e. by the cooperating clinical (neuro)psychologist) Sufficient comprehension and communication skills to benefit from training (based on clinical judgement)
