Memory boost in older adults with optimal dosing
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation method to see if it can improve memory in healthy older adults. It uses carefully chosen doses to find the best approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether electrical stimulation of the brain can change brain signals and support working memory (your ability to hold and use information briefly). It’s mainly for people who don’t have certain brain/mental health conditions and who are able to safely receive this type of stimulation.
This trial studies a “closed-loop” brain stimulation approach to improve symptoms in people with early Alzheimer’s-related memory problems. It may help by delivering stimulation based on your brain signals, if you meet the safety and diagnosis requirements.
This study tests whether a gentle, noninvasive brain stimulation technique called tACS can help improve memory in people with Alzheimer's disease or mild cognitive impairment. It may also include healthy older adults for comparison.
This study tests if a gentle brain-stimulation device used at home can help older adults who have both memory worries and slower walking. A study partner will help you use the device.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical current applied to the scalp (tACS) combined with computer-based brain exercises can improve memory and thinking in older adults who have concerns about their cognitive health.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation method (tACS) can improve memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). A caregiver also helps with the stimulation during the study, and success is measured through study visits and memory-related evaluations.
