Alzheimer's helmet therapy hope
Quote:
An experimental helmet is being tested by scientists as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease.
It delivers low levels of infra-red light, which researchers at the University of Sunderland, believe may stimulate the growth of brain cells.
Tests in mice showed it improved learning ability and a study in humans is due to begin in the summer.
Current treatments for Alzheimer's delay progression of the disease but cannot reverse memory loss.
