This study, named TRAP-AD, will examine whether light-based brain stimulation can improve memory in older adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI). Participants will be randomly assigned to receive light stimulation or a sham for 10 minutes a day, three days a week, for two months. At the start and end of the study and one month after study completion, participants will undergo PET and MRI brain scans as well as a series of cognitive and neuropsychological tests. Researchers will also collect information on any adverse side effects of the treatment.
