Virtual reality training for Alzheimer's patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a virtual reality training program can help people with Alzheimer's disease. If you join, you will use a VR headset to do fun activities or exercises designed to improve thinking and memory.
