Miami, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT04855630Recruiting
Sleep and mild exercise program for thinking and memory support
This study tests whether combining better sleep routines with mild exercise can help with memory, concentration, and thinking speed. To do that, you would wear special devices and complete quick at-home and in-person assessments and a small finger-prick blood test.
Miami, FloridaAges 45–80 - NCT03489278Recruiting

Coconut Creek, FloridaAges 18 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.
Coral Springs, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06862557Recruiting
PEMF treatment for people with dementia

What taking part in a dementia 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.
