Humanity Neurotech Device Clinical Trial in Adults with Long COVID Cognitive Dysfunction

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of an at-home MMT treatment in patients with cognitive dysfunction related to PASC, and to collect data on safety and efficacy to inform the design of larger clinical studies.
