Brain zap during workout may boost memory in early Alzheimer's

This small pilot study tested whether combining physical exercise with a mild, non-invasive brain stimulation technique could help improve memory in people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's disease. Researchers wanted to see if stimulating the brain during exercise made the treatment more effective than either approach alone. The study involved 60 participants who were randomly assigned to different combinations of exercise, brain stimulation, or standard care.
