Abu DhabiAges 18 years+ - NCT07127172Recruiting
Brain implant study for controlling devices with your mind
This study tests a brain implant that lets you control external devices like a computer or tablet just by thinking. It is for people with paralysis or severe weakness in both arms due to conditions like spinal cord injury, ALS, or stroke.
London, Greater LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06906432Recruiting
Brain-Heart Injury After Brain Bleed Study
This study looks at how a brain bleed can affect the heart. Researchers hope to understand the link between brain and heart injury to help improve care for people who have had a brain bleed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT03414242Enrolling by invitation
Neck and brain tests after a sports head or neck injury
This study looks at how sports-related injuries may affect thinking and how well your neck moves and feels strong. You may be eligible if you’re an athlete and can do simple neck movement and strength checks.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 12–30 - NCT07106060Recruiting
Brain imaging of motor imagery effects in spinal cord injury
This study uses a special camera to see how imagining movement (motor imagery) affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injury. It aims to help understand how the brain recovers after injury.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07225582Recruiting
Best sensory feedback for hand function after spinal injury
This study is for people who have already received the ReHAB system in a previous trial. It aims to find the best ways to use sensory feedback from the device to help with hand and arm function after tetraplegia.
Cleveland, OhioAges 22–65 - NCT07357428Recruiting
Brain-computer implant study for severe paralysis or speech loss
This study tests a brain-computer implant that might help people with severe paralysis or speech loss control a computer with their thoughts. It is for people who have trouble moving and speaking due to a progressive disease or injury.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 22–75 - NCT05724173Recruiting
Test of a brain-to-computer device for ALS hand paralysis
This study checks whether a brain-computer interface (a BrainGate2 system) is safe and workable for people with ALS. If you qualify, you may be asked to try the device and complete study tasks to help researchers learn how well it can support communication or control.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06094205Recruiting
BrainGate2 speech study for people with tetraplegia
This study tests a brain-computer interface to help people with severe paralysis communicate by decoding attempted speech or movements. It may offer a new way to interact with devices using only brain signals.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT00912041Recruiting
Test of a brain-to-computer device for quadriplegia
This study tests whether a tiny brain computer interface can help people with quadriplegia (loss of movement in all four limbs) communicate or control technology. It’s mainly a feasibility study, meaning the goal is to see if the device can work safely and reliably in real life.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07521930Recruiting
Brain implant to restore communication and movement control
This trial tests a surgically implanted brain device designed to help people with severe paralysis or movement disorders regain the ability to communicate and control their limbs. The device reads signals from your brain and translates them into commands that could help you interact with computers or assistive technology.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT07052344Recruiting
Brain-gut connection study in spinal cord injury
This study looks at how the brain and gut communicate in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and healthy controls. It uses non-invasive methods to understand these signals, which might help improve bowel and overall health.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT01894802Recruiting
Brain recording and stimulation to help control a computer
This study tests a brain-machine interface that records brain activity and uses stimulation to help people with severe hand/arm movement loss communicate or control tasks using a computer. It may help restore some control and reduce dependence on hands that cannot be used normally.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 22–70 - NCT06888817RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 451 recruiting brain injuries studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a brain injuries trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a brain injuries trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
