Recruiting studies in Michigan
- NCT03260400Recruiting
Muscle and nerve implants to improve bionic arm control
This study tests a new approach that uses small nerve and muscle grafts along with temporary electrodes to help people with an above-wrist arm amputation get better control of a bionic arm. If it works, it could make prosthetics feel more natural and easier to use.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 22–75 - NCT06138977Recruiting
Testing a smart bionic leg for different walking activities
This study tests a new type of bionic leg that can adjust to different walking speeds and activities. You may be able to join if you are a healthy adult or an adult with a leg amputation who can walk well.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–65 - NCT06275282Recruiting
Nerve surgery for better leg prosthetic control
This trial tests a new nerve surgery technique to help people with above-knee leg amputations have better control of their prosthetic leg. The goal is to improve how well the prosthesis responds to your movements.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–75 - NCT05888428Recruiting
Test of a smart arm prosthesis control system for arm amputees
This trial studies whether the MyoTrain system can help people with a below-elbow (trans-radial) arm amputation control a myoelectric prosthesis using muscle signals. It may help you practice and use a more “thought-to-movement” style control method if you meet the safety and participation requirements.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05008185Recruiting
Nerve interface surgery to reduce hand pain nerve tumors
This trial tests a regenerative nerve device/surgery approach to reduce painful nerve growths (neuromas) after a finger or partial hand amputation. You may qualify if you’re an adult with confirmed, localized neuroma pain and have already tried a 6-week desensitization therapy plan.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05009394Recruiting
Surgery options for long-term pain after limb amputation
This trial studies different surgical approaches to reduce persistent pain in the leftover part of an amputated limb. You may be able to join if your post-amputation pain has lasted more than a year and your pain level stays high despite stable pain treatments and prosthesis use.

What taking part in a amputation study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there amputation clinical trials in Michigan?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting amputation studies with a site in Michigan, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a amputation study in Michigan?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Michigan to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Michigan, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a amputation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New amputation studies open in Michigan regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
