Summary

This study tests whether a fast form of brain stimulation (accelerated deep TMS) combined with memory exercises can safely improve thinking skills in older adults with mild memory issues. About 30 participants aged 55-85 with subjective memory decline or mild cognitive impairment will receive either real or fake stimulation over 5 days, followed by 6 weeks of cognitive training. The goal is to see if this approach is tolerable and can boost memory and executive function.
