TMS study for memory and thinking problems
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have mild cognitive impairment (MCI), meaning you have memory or thinking problems that are noticeable but not severe enough to be dementia.
- You are right-handed.
- You speak English.
- You can attend daily sessions for about 15 days over a 6-month period.
- You have not participated in another interventional study in the past 6 months.

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 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 trial tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (a noninvasive brain stimulation technique) can help people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). You and a close contact, like a spouse or friend, will both take part in the study over several sessions.
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 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 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.
