Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to better understand the effects of transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) on neural oscillations of individuals diagnosed with Down syndrome.


Clinical Trial Description

This study will compare the effect of tPBM to sham tPBM on gamma neural oscillations in the brain as assessed by EEG, and on language, attention and memory as assessed by neuropsychological testing. Participants will be randomized to either tPBM with near-infrared light (tPBM-NIR) or tPBM-Sham and will undergo 18 treatments (3 treatments per week for 6 weeks) in addition to baseline, short-term and long- term follow up visits. ;
