Summary

This study tests whether a special light therapy (transcranial photobiomodulation) used at home can help improve thinking and memory in adults who survived childhood leukemia or Hodgkin lymphoma. About 44 survivors will use a light device on their head while doing brain-training exercises. The goal is to see if this approach is practical and can ease cognitive problems like trouble focusing or remembering.
