New treatment option for EEG Brain Oscillations
Official title Effects of Endogenous Gamma Light Stimulation on Brain Oscillations in Cognitively-normal Older Adults
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06715995
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This study aims to evaluate the effects of endogenous gamma non-flickering light stimulation on resting-state EEG rhythms and cognitive function in cognitively healthy older adults. Specifically, it will assess the immediate and long-term effects of this stimulation on brainwave activity and cognitive performance.
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
