In a sea of failed Alzheimer’s treatments, a digital health startup is hoping to find answers in a noninvasive treatment using light and sound.
Cognito was founded by MIT Professors Li-Huei Tsai and Ed Boyden. The company was spun out of research where they found they could reduce amyloid plaques in mice by exposing them to light flickering at a certain frequency. Now, they’re seeing if the treatment holds promise for Alzheimer’s patients.
