According to Press TV:
Scientists have found that stimulating the brain with a magnet boosts the growth of brain cells and may work as a treatment for Alzheimer’s.
Although the findings for mice don’t always work as expected on humans, this research looks promising, especially since magnetic therapy has already been successfully used with stroke victims.

Hi,
I looked for contact information on this site and could not find any. I am a graduate student in psychology doing a study on how your ability to remember what you see changes with aging. It is not about Alzheimers per se, but it is something you might be interested in.
The study is online. It takes about 3-5 minutes. I have many, many participants who are in their 20s, but am having more difficulty recruiting older participants. If you or other readers of this blog would be interested, please go to
