Effects of Auditory Brain Stimulation by "Pink Noise" on Memory Capacities in Alzheimer's Disease: Proof of Concept Study (PINK-AD)
Many studies indicate that sleep promotes this consolidation stage during the deep slow sleep stage by facilitating the transfer of information between the hippocampus and the neocortex.A method of acoustic brain stimulation at night by pink noises has been recently developed and has shown its effectiveness in strengthening memory consolidation …

Combined Optokinetic Stimulation and Cueing-based Reading Therapy to Treat Hemispatial Neglect Following Stroke
Although different therapeutic approaches (including cognitive interventions, non-invasive brain stimulation and drugs) have been investigated in the last decades, an established therapy is still missing. Hence, there is a clear need for an effective and feasible intervention that can be applied in rehabilitation centers.
