It is estimated that every 3 seconds, someone develops dementia – a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life. By 2050, more than 150 million people ...

A decade of studies from labs around the world provide a growing evidence base that increasing the power of the brain's gamma rhythms could help fight Alzheimer's, and perhaps other, neurological ...

Diane Chan (left) and Li-Huei Tsai (right) discuss the research in MIT lab where volunteers receive 40Hz stimulation and their response is measured using EEG. A new research paper documents the ...

Early-stage trials in Alzheimer's disease patients and studies in mouse models of the disease have suggested positive impacts on pathology and symptoms from exposure to light and sound presented at ...

Researchers investigated how a 40Hz light and sound therapy helps preserve myelin in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The therapy also shows potential for treating other conditions that involve ...

A decade after scientists at The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT first began testing whether sensory stimulation of the brain's 40Hz "gamma" frequency rhythms could treat Alzheimer's ...

Bright staining highlights VIP-expressing interneurons in this coronal cross-section of a mouse brain. The neurons may help drive glymphatic clearance of amyloid via the release of peptides. Studies ...

Scientists report that gamma frequency light and sound stimulation preserves myelination in mouse models and reveal molecular mechanisms that may underlie the benefit. Early-stage trials in ...
