Brain stimulation study for memory in certain adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a targeted, non-surgical brain stimulation method to help people with memory, especially remembering facts over time. It compares healthy adults and adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), using sessions plus brain scans and memory testing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be an adult age 19 or older
- Be able to understand the study and sign consent
- Be able to follow instructions and sit still during brain stimulation and brain scans
- Be right-handed (both your self-report and a standard hand test)
- Have no metal implants in your body (except teeth) and no metal that can’t be removed
- Not be pregnant (a urine pregnancy test will be used)

This study tests a brain-stimulation approach to help improve memory as people age. You may be able to take part if you can consent and meet safety and medical criteria, especially related to brain/nerve health and seizure risk.
This study tests whether daily brain stimulation (TMS) can improve the brain's waste-clearing system, which may help with memory and thinking. It is for people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and the intervention is safe and non-invasive.
This study tests a new brain stimulation method that may help improve memory and thinking in older adults who have memory concerns. It uses a safe, non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) that sends magnetic pulses to the brain.
This trial tests whether a harmless brain stimulation technique called TPS can improve memory and thinking in older adults with mild memory problems. You may be able to join if you have MCI, are right-handed, and are generally healthy otherwise.
This study uses brain stimulation and MRI scans to learn more about memory problems in people with neurodegenerative diseases or brain injuries. It may help researchers understand how to improve treatment.
This study tests a brain stimulation approach (TBS) to see if it can improve thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment. It may also explore why it works by looking at brain-related measurements after TBS.
