Recruiting studies in Florida
- NCT06502964RecruitingPhase 2
ALTO-101 study for schizophrenia cognitive symptoms
This study tests an experimental medication called ALTO-101 for people with schizophrenia who also have cognitive impairment (memory or thinking problems). It aims to see if the drug can improve these symptoms while you continue your current antipsychotic treatment.
Hollywood, FloridaAges 21–55 - NCT06507189Recruiting
How exercise affects older adults: a study
This study looks at how different older adults respond to exercise. It will help researchers understand why some people benefit more than others. You will be asked to do supervised exercise sessions and tests over about 6 months.
Pensacola, FloridaAges 60 years+ - NCT05965336Recruiting
Walking test study for nerve damage in diabetes feet
This study looks at how well people with diabetes-related nerve damage (diabetic peripheral neuropathy) can walk, using a treadmill and walking distance tests. It may help improve understanding of walking limits and how to measure change over time.
Pensacola, FloridaAges 45 years+ - NCT05748613Recruiting
Anxiety-focused skills training for people with Alzheimer’s
This study tests a treatment aimed at reducing anxiety in people who have Alzheimer’s disease or related memory problems. It also involves a support partner, and the goal is to see whether the program can lower anxiety and stress day-to-day.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 60 years+ - NCT05617014Enrolling by invitation
ADNI4 study for early Alzheimer’s with brain imaging tests
This study enrolls people with no memory impairment, mild memory problems, or mild Alzheimer’s dementia to test how brain scans and cognitive tests relate to Alzheimer’s disease. It may help by contributing to better early diagnosis and by letting you see whether you fit into the study’s imaging and blood-test pathway.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 55–90 - NCT05457725Recruiting
Study how aging affects learning to trust and distrust
This study looks at how thinking and learning processes change with age, especially around deciding what to trust. You may be asked to complete computer tasks and brief memory/thinking tests to understand these changes.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT05380050Recruiting
Comparing online and in-person memory training for veterans with mild brain injury and PTSD
This study compares two ways of delivering a memory and thinking skills program to veterans with both mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The goal is to see if doing the training online is as effective as doing it in person, which could make it easier for more veterans to get help.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 30–55 - NCT05194930Recruiting
Insomnia treatment study for Veterans with PTSD symptoms
This study tests treatments to help Veterans who have both PTSD symptoms and trouble sleeping (insomnia). You may be invited to try study procedures to see what helps insomnia and whether it also improves sleep-related well-being.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05136703Recruiting
Study depression treatment effects in people living with HIV
This study looks at how depression and its treatment may affect the brain and immune-related body systems in people with HIV. You may be eligible if you have depression and a well-controlled HIV viral load, and you can safely complete brain MRI scans.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04419272RecruitingPhase 4
Methylphenidate for thinking problems in adults with focal seizures
This trial studies whether methylphenidate (a stimulant medicine) can improve thinking and memory problems related to epilepsy. You may be kept on your usual seizure medicines, and your thinking will be tested over about 16 weeks.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04262206RecruitingPhase 4
Testing how statins affect outcomes in adults 75 and older
This trial studies whether cholesterol-lowering medicine (a statin, specifically atorvastatin) improves health and benefits in people age 75 and older in everyday life. It may help doctors understand which older adults benefit most and how to use these medicines safely.
Bay Pines, FloridaAges 75 years+ - NCT04142177Recruiting
Test which pain treatments work best for chronic low back pain
This study compares how well different pain treatments reduce low back pain and improve daily life. You may be asked to start or continue care through the VA and attend in-person sessions while completing pain and activity questionnaires.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03932773Recruiting
Check rTMS treatment for combat-related PTSD in veterans
This trial tests whether a non-drug brain stimulation treatment (rTMS) can reduce symptoms of PTSD in veterans who were exposed to post-9/11 combat trauma. It may help by improving PTSD symptoms, but you must meet safety rules—especially related to seizure risk.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–60 - NCT03618186Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Brain scan study for African Americans age 30+
This Phase 2 study uses brain imaging (including PET and MRI) to learn more about brain changes. It may help researchers improve how brain patterns are measured and understood, which could guide future care.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 30 years+ - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.

What taking part in a cognition 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.
Cognition trials in other states
Common questions
- Are there cognition clinical trials in Florida?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 63 recruiting cognition studies with a site in Florida, 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 cognition study in Florida?
- 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 Florida to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Florida, 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 cognition 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 cognition studies open in Florida regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
