The study plan is to recruit a total of 15 cognitively impaired and 15 healthy adults. The study will involve two visits. Each study visit will involve:~Real rTMS or sham rTMS that last about 60 minutes~Gaze stabilization exercise via a virtual reality headset for about 1-hour~Target stepping on a treadmill for about 1-hour~Researchers will compare changes in gaze and gait following training sessions with real rTMS and sham rTMS.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of combining repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), gaze and gait training to improve walking and balance in people with or without mild cognitive impairment.
