This study is testing whether gentle light and sound stimulation can improve brain activity in adults with Down Syndrome. Researchers want to see if this non-invasive approach, which showed promise in Alzheimer's research, can help regulate brain waves and potentially slow future…

This study is testing whether a single dose of CBD (cannabidiol) can reduce anxiety in people with social anxiety disorder. Researchers will give 50 participants either CBD or a placebo before putting them through a standard social stress test. They'll measure anxiety levels thro…

This study is testing whether gentle light and sound stimulation at a specific frequency (40Hz) can change brain activity in healthy adults and people with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers want to see if this non-invasive approach is safe and affects brain connections, thinking s…

This research study aims to understand how social stress affects brain activity in healthy people. Researchers at MIT will have 50 participants either experience a standard social stress test or watch a relaxing nature film, then scan their brains using MRI. The goal is to see if…
