Aging Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) at Gamma Band Frequencies on Memory Recall and Sleep in Healthy Elderly Participants
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of non-invasive transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) at gamma frequency in enhancing memory recall and modulating sleep network dynamics measured by at-home electroencephalography (EEG) in healthy elderly people. Eligible participants will first collect sleep EEG at home for one night to acclimate to the data collection during sleep. Participants are then randomized into first undergoing either tACS at gamma band frequencies (i.e. 40Hz) or tACS at a control frequency (i.e. 21Hz). Stimulation is administered in the lab during a cognitive testing battery that includes memorizing items. After a night of sleep with EEG at home, participants return to the lab the following day to measure memory recall. Recall is performed again after five days. This sequence of encoding during stimulation in the lab, sleep EEG at home for one night, and recall is then repeated for the other stimulation condition about a week later. Participants are wearing an actigraphy wristband throughout the study period.
