Traditional 40Hz light stimulation has shown potential to improve brain health in Alzheimer’s, but the flashing light often causes visual discomfort, limiting its practicality and effectiveness. This presentation introduces a ground-breaking technology that induces non-perceptible gamma stimulation in the brain. The method of a double-blind clinical trial of a table lamp will be presented, followed by clinical trial data showing clear gamma stimulation and observe cognitive improvement after 1-month treatment. More importantly, this innovation opens the door to embedding such technology in almost all indoor lighting applications thus creating a healthy indoor space that improves memory and prevents Alzheimer’s.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the background information of using visual gamma stimulation of treating Alzheimer’s disease.
- Understanding the restrictions and limitations of traditional visual gamma stimulation
- Understand the new endogenously triggered visual gamma stimulation with clinical trial data
- Explore the potential application of this new technology in preventing Alzheimer’s and improving memory recall for any healthy indoor space.
Speakers

Dr. Matthew Maa received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Michigan State University and has been awarded over 25 patents in general LED lighting technologies as well as in circadian lighting, germicidal lighting, and wellness lighting. He has given many technical presentations at professional conferences and has been offering frequent webinars on emergency lighting and germicidal lighting for distribution partners and the public. His recent research expands the wellness lighting boundary beyond circadian lighting and brings the benefits into everyday life.

Dr. Li-Jyuan (Judy) Luo earned her Ph.D. in Chemical and Materials Engineering from Chang Gung University, Taiwan. With 34 publications and numerous international research awards, she is now Project Manager at Aleddra Inc., driving the development of innovative wellness lighting technologies and products. Her work bridges materials science and LED technology to create health-focused, high-performance lighting solutions for modern environments.
