Brain games to understand aging brains
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if playing special brain-computer interface (BCI) games can help keep your brain active as you age. The games use your brain waves to respond, so you don't need to move a mouse or keyboard.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia
- You have normal vision, or can see clearly with glasses or contacts
- You can stay seated, with or without support, for about 60 minutes at a time
- You are able to understand instructions and give your consent
- You do not have severe health problems like active cancer, advanced heart or lung disease, or serious mental illness
- You have no history of epilepsy with seizures in the past year, and no history of seizures triggered by flashing lights (photosensitive epilepsy)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests if a brain-computer interface can help older adults improve attention. You'll use a computer that reads your brain signals and gives feedback to train your focus.
This study tests whether guided exercises targeting memory, thinking skills, and daily habits can help people with mild cognitive impairment (early memory or thinking problems that don't severely impact daily life). You'll participate in a structured rehabilitation program designed to support brain health.
This trial tests a new way to help people with mild memory problems improve their sense of direction and navigation. You will be asked to do tasks while wearing a special cap that records brain activity, to see how your brain responds to spatial challenges.
This study tests whether a computer-based brain training program can help older adults maintain or improve their thinking and memory skills. Researchers will compare people with normal thinking abilities to those with mild memory problems to see if the training helps both groups.
This study tests whether combining brain stimulation (TMS) with cognitive training games can help people with mild cognitive impairment—early memory and thinking problems. The goal is to see if this combination improves thinking abilities and slows cognitive decline.
This study tests whether a combination of memory exercises, physical activity, and brain training can help older adults with mild memory problems. You'll participate in group activities designed to strengthen thinking and memory skills.
