Brain Stimulation for Memory Problems in Older Adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 60 and 80 years old
- You have mild cognitive impairment (early memory loss) confirmed by specific cognitive tests, but do not have dementia
- You live independently in the community and can manage most daily activities on your own
- You have no history of stroke, Parkinson's disease, seizures, or other neurological conditions affecting the brain
- You have no metallic implants, pacemakers, or metal in your body that would prevent an MRI scan
- You are not severely depressed and do not have other serious mental health conditions

This study tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation method (called temporal interference stimulation) to see if it can improve memory and balance while walking in older adults who have mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you might receive this stimulation and take part in memory and balance tests.
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation combined with tai chi to see if it can improve memory and thinking in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a stage between normal aging and dementia. It may help slow down memory decline and improve daily function.
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.
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 a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tDCS) combined with brain wave recording (EEG) to see if it can improve memory and thinking in people with mild cognitive impairment or early dementia.
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical brain stimulation technique called tACS can improve working memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). If you have MCI due to early Alzheimer's, this study may help find new ways to boost memory.
