Non-invasive brain stimulation to slow cognitive decline
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation can help slow memory loss or thinking problems. It is looking for healthy volunteers and people who have had a mild traumatic brain injury within the past year.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 85 years old (or 20–65 if you have a mild head injury)
- You are willing to have an MRI and are free of any metal or devices that prevent it
- You do not have any major neurological conditions (like epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson's, or brain tumors)
- You are not allergic to common electrode materials used for stimulation
- If you have a head injury, you are not on certain heart or blood pressure medications, and you have no other serious brain conditions

This trial uses brain stimulation and MRI to study memory problems in people with neurodegenerative diseases or traumatic brain injury. It aims to understand how the brain changes and may help guide future treatments.
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 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.
This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation to see if it can improve memory and thinking skills in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (early memory loss that isn't yet dementia). Participants will receive the stimulation treatment and have their cognitive function monitored over time.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can help clear waste from the brain in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The goal is to see if this improves memory and thinking.
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.
