TEDTalk: Are Brain Waves the Secret to Treating Alzheimer’s?
Publication: TED Author: Li-Huei Tsai What if we could use brain waves to treat Alzheimer’s? Professor and neuroscientist Li-Huei Tsai details a promising new approach to artificially stimulate gamma brain waves using light and sound therapy, to increase connectivity and synchrony and delay the onset of this deadly disease. This non-invasive therapy has already been […]
Could a Novel Light Therapy Help People?
Publication: NewsWiseAuthor: Mount Sinai Health System The National Institute of Health awarded Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai by approving a 5-year grant focused solely on 40 Hz light therapy. The project will use pulses of light to focus on enhancing sleep in patients while another focus is boosting gamma waves. For Dr. Mariana […]
Cognito Therapeutics Presents New Clinical Data
Publication: Biospace A Massachusetts-based neuro-physiology company developing a new class of digital therapeutics to treat neurodegenerative disorders presented key findings from clinical research at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in 2021. These results reported the impact of gamma frequency neuro-modulation on cognitive function in Alzheimer’s Disease, which showed improvements in sleep, improvements in memory and […]
How Flashing Lights Might Improve Memory and More
Publication: NatureAuthor: Helen Thomson Neuroscientists are getting excited about non-invasive procedures to tune the brain’s natural oscillations. Although scientists have observed the effects of differing brainwaves for the past 100 years, only now are they understanding the positive effects that certain frequencies have on restoring gamma wave activity in the brain. The work offers the […]
