Brain Stimulation Study for Alzheimer's Disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special type of brain stimulation called 40Hz BCI (brain-computer interface) might help slow memory loss in people with Alzheimer's disease. You would receive daily stimulation sessions at home with help from a caregiver.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease (confirmed by imaging and clinical testing)
- Age 50–80 years old
- Have a caregiver who can help you with daily stimulation sessions
- Able to walk independently or with a cane/walker
- Good enough vision and hearing to communicate and complete testing
- No history of seizures, epilepsy, or major psychiatric conditions

This study tests a new, noninvasive brain stimulation method called Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) for people in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to see if it can help improve symptoms.
This trial tests a treatment that sends gentle electrical pulses to a part of the brain involved in memory and thinking. It is for people with early-stage Alzheimer's who live at home and have a caregiver who can help.
This trial tests if a safe, non-invasive electrical stimulation can help people with Alzheimer's disease. It aims to improve thinking and memory skills.
This study tests whether a special type of brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation can improve memory and thinking skills in people with early-stage Alzheimer's disease. The treatment uses electrical stimulation to target specific brain areas without surgery.
This study tests if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help improve memory and thinking in people with Alzheimer's disease. It may be an option if you are between 55 and 80, right-handed, and have a confirmed diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
This Johns Hopkins study tests a personalized brain stimulation device that adjusts in real-time to help people with early-stage Alzheimer's disease improve memory. Researchers will implant electrodes to stimulate the brain based on your brain activity, aiming to strengthen memory function.
