Can light and sound waves help delay the onset of Alzheimer's?
In short: Neuroscientist Li-Huei Tsai explores a non-invasive approach to treating Alzheimer's by using light and sound therapy to artificially stimulate gamma brain waves.
The therapy aims to increase connectivity and synchrony within the brain. While this method has already demonstrated success in mice, it is now moving into human clinical trials to determine if it can effectively delay the onset of the disease.
