First seen Jun 13, 2026 · Last updated Jun 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (HD-tDCS) could improve memory and word recall in 27 older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Participants received 10 sessions targeting a brain region linked to memory. The goal was to see if this approach could ease memory symptoms, not cure the condition.
