Summary

This pilot study tests whether shining a special near-infrared light on the head (called transcranial photobiomodulation, or tPBM) can improve blood flow and thinking in older adults. Thirty healthy volunteers aged 21-85 will receive either real or fake (sham) light sessions every other day for 4 weeks. Researchers will measure brain activity, blood flow, and cognitive performance to see if the light therapy has any benefits.
