Summary

Emerging studies in humans found that 40 Hz sound induces neural gamma oscillation and enhanced cognitive function in older adults with and without Alzheimer's Disease. We will compare a 40 Hz music intervention to both 40 Hz sound and music alone in a clinical cohort of older adults with mild cognitive impairment.
