Clinical trials: High-density Stimulation
Mild Cognitive Impairment
Improvement of Memory in Mild Cognitive Impairment
The Clinical Trial will systematically examine the feasibility of remote, caregiver-led tACS for older adults with memory deficits and evaluate whether repeated tACS leads to sustained improvement of neuronal activity and memory…

Healthy Aging
Signal Propagation and Its Relationship to Cognitive Performance in the Aging Human Brain (Focus or Spread)
In the next three decades, the world's population over 60 years old is expected to more than double its size. Even in the absence of an obvious pathology (i.e., healthy aging), advancing age is typically associated with a…
