The researchers found that by delivering certain patterns of light flicker, the brain as a whole starts to entrain, meaning it matches to those particular patterns of light flicker.

A new study shows that when particular patterns of light are delivered to the eyes, gamma oscillations occur in parts of the brain not directly linked to the visuals system.

Summary
A new study shows that when particular patterns of light are delivered to the eyes, gamma oscillations occur in parts of the brain not directly linked to the visuals system. This rhythm helps trigger molecular pathways that reduce the markers for age-related cognitive dysfunction and Alzheimer's.
