Summary
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called tES) can improve memory, thinking, and walking in older adults with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia. Caregivers are trained to deliver the stimulation remotely under guidance. The goal is to see if this safe, at-home approach can ease symptoms and improve daily function.
