Flickering light mobilizes brain chemistry that may fight Alzheimer’s
by Ben Brumfield, Georgia Institute of Technology For over a century, Alzheimer’s disease has confounded all attempts to treat it. But in recent years, perplexing experiments using flickering light have shown promise. Now, researchers have tapped into how the flicker may work. They discovered in the lab that the exposure to light pulsing at 40...
