Tracking how concussion affects college driving over time
This study follows young adults who drive to see how a concussion may affect driving abilities over time. You may be asked to complete driving- and health-related assessments, and the results could help improve safety and guidance after concussion.
Athens, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05929833Enrolling by invitation
Brain injury education program for recovery at home
This study tests a recovery-focused brain injury education and support program for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) who plan to go home after hospital stay. If you qualify, you and a caregiver/friend may get training and therapy support aimed at improving recovery.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05848297Recruiting
Robotic ultrasound monitoring for severe traumatic brain injury
This trial tests whether a robotic system using a bedside ultrasound test (TCD) can safely monitor brain blood flow in adults with severe traumatic brain injury soon after the injury. It may help the care team track changes earlier and adjust treatment sooner.
Davis, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05762796Recruiting
Brain scan and stimulation study for kids with mild concussion
This study tests whether a brain “stimulation” approach, paired with brain imaging (MRI), can help children who still have symptoms after a mild concussion. There is also a comparison group of children without concussion history.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 10–15 - NCT05663034Recruiting
Compare CBT-I vs MBTI for sleep and trauma symptoms after TBI
This study compares two types of talk-based therapy to help veterans with long-lasting insomnia after a traumatic brain injury (TBI), and also looks at related post-trauma stress symptoms. It may help you improve sleep and reduce how much these symptoms affect daily life.
Eglin Air Force Base, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05393492Recruiting
Emotion and behavior skills after a brain injury
This study tests a structured program to help people after a brain injury manage emotions and challenging behaviors, and to reduce distress for them and their families. If you (or your family member) can participate safely and understand the activities in French, you may be invited to join a group and assessments.
Illkirch-GraffenstadenAges 18 years+ - NCT05261477Recruiting
Kid Brain Injury Education and Care Navigation Program
This trial tests a family support program that teaches caregivers and helps coordinate outpatient care after a traumatic brain injury. It may help families better understand recovery and connect with rehabilitation services.
Colorado Springs, ColoradoAges 3 years+ - NCT05048966Recruiting
Comparing two wellness support groups for brain injury and dementia
This study compares two group wellness programs for people with brain injuries or dementia and their caregivers. It aims to see which program helps improve well-being and quality of life for both the person with the condition and their support person.
East Hanover, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT02769416Enrolling by invitation
Testing new treatments for spinal cord and brain injuries
This study looks for ways to test treatments for people with spinal cord injuries and/or brain injuries. It may help researchers better understand which treatment approaches work and for whom.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02592291Recruiting
Using a phone app to help manage long-term health needs

Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT06163833RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell treatment for severe traumatic brain injury
This study tests whether a treatment made from donor stem cells (called mesenchymal stromal cells) can help people recover from a severe traumatic brain injury. The cells are given through a vein within 48 hours of the injury.
Monza, MBAges 18–70 - NCT04182087Recruiting
Testing thinking skills after a localized brain injury

GrenobleAges 18–70 - NCT06426615Recruiting
Understanding brain signals in unresponsive states after injury
This study looks at brain activity in people who are unresponsive after a brain injury. It uses advanced brain scans to see if there are hidden signs of consciousness, which could help doctors better understand and care for these patients.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07842458Recruiting
Monitoring brain activity after traumatic brain injury
This trial monitors brain activity with special electrodes after a severe head injury. It aims to understand how the brain recovers by watching the electrical signals, which might help improve treatment for brain pressure.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07783828Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain injuries?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 460 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.
