Gamma-Music Based Intervention for Mild Alzheimer's Disease

This study is testing a new approach called Gamma-Music Based Intervention for people with mild Alzheimer's disease. This intervention uses special lights that flicker at a gamma frequency along with music you choose yourself. The goal is to see if this combination can influence brain activity, be enjoyable and motivating to use, and help us understand who might benefit most. Researchers hope this intervention can slow down the progression of Alzheimer's by combining music therapy with a type of brain stimulation. You may be able to join if you are 50 to 95 years old, have mild Alzheimer's disease, and meet specific memory test scores. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This interventional study plans to enroll 60 participants. It will compare a Gamma-Music Based Intervention to a control using lights and music.
What's involved
You would participate in the Gamma or Control lights with Music-Based Intervention for an 8-week period. Your brain activity (EEG) will be measured at 1 hour.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your brain activity (EEG) will be measured at 1 hour after the intervention.
