Memory test under a magnetic field
This study tests whether a weak magnetic field can improve working memory (the ability to hold and use information in your mind). You'll do simple memory tasks while a magnetic field is applied. It could help researchers find new ways to boost memory.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be able to speak French fluently, since the tasks are in French.
- Your eyesight should be normal, or you need to wear contact lenses (no glasses).
- You can't have any metal in your head or body that can't be removed, like certain dental fillings or electronic implants.
- You must not have a history of neurological, psychiatric, or chronic conditions that affect memory or attention.
- You must not have used drugs or alcohol in the 24 hours before the study.

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 how a brain stimulation method affects how well you do thinking and memory tasks. You would complete cognitive testing before and after the stimulation, and the researchers look at whether your performance changes.
This study tests whether a brain-magnetic (TMS) training approach can improve how people learn and control movements. It’s done in healthy adults to understand how mental training affects motor learning.
This study tests a new way to use brain stimulation guided by MRI to understand memory. It may help people with mild memory problems or healthy volunteers.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called accelerated neuromodulation, aimed at improving memory and thinking in older adults with mild memory issues. It uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate a part of the brain linked to memory.
