Personalized brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This study tests a new, personalized form of brain stimulation (called TMS) using MRI scans to target the right areas for people whose depression hasn't improved with medication. It aims to see if this tailored approach works better than standard TMS.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT06534684Recruiting
Brain stimulation (iTBS) for depression and thinking changes
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called iTBS can improve depression and thinking skills. It uses a magnetic coil over the scalp and is done on multiple days.
TromsøAges 22–65 - NCT07786714Recruiting
Faster brain stimulation for early psychosis risk
This study tests a faster type of brain stimulation, called accelerated neuromodulation therapy, in people who have early signs that could lead to psychosis. The goal is to see if this treatment can help reduce symptoms and improve daily life.
Verdun, QuebecAges 18–34 - NCT07768397Recruiting
Comparing two brain-stimulation schedules for depression
This study tests two different schedules of a treatment called theta burst stimulation, which uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate the brain. It aims to find out if the faster schedule works better than the standard one for people with major depression.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–65 - NCT07758010Recruiting
Brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression
This study tests a type of brain stimulation called cTBS (continuous theta burst stimulation) applied to a specific part of the brain (the precuneus) to see if it helps with treatment-resistant depression. It aims to provide a new option for people who haven't found relief from standard treatments.
Belmont, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07749378Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for healthy decision making
This study uses gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation (like a magnetic pulse) to understand how healthy people make decisions. If you join, you will perform simple tasks while your brain activity is briefly affected, which may reveal how your choices work.
Würzburg, BavariaAges 18–40 - NCT06371352Recruiting
Brain stimulation for sleep and fatigue in depression
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (theta burst stimulation) to see if it can improve sleep, reduce daytime sleepiness, and ease fatigue in people with depression.
WarsawAges 18–65 - NCT07701785Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for Parkinson's with mild memory issues
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called iTBS on an area of the brain that may help with thinking and memory problems in people with Parkinson's disease and mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you and your caregiver would take part in sessions and answer questions about your daily life.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 50–85 - NCT07682207Recruiting
Accelerated brain stimulation for PTSD and depression
This study tests an accelerated form of brain stimulation called iTBS to see if it can help people with both PTSD and depression. It may be a good option if you have not found enough relief from your current treatments.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07673913Recruiting
Blood markers and brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This study is testing whether a new type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can help people with treatment-resistant depression (depression that hasn't improved with standard medicines). It also looks at certain blood markers to see if they can predict how well someone will respond to this treatment.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–55 - NCT06121284RecruitingPhase 2
Brain stimulation plus medication for youth suicide
This study tests if a new type of brain stimulation (iTBS) combined with a medicine called D-cycloserine can reduce suicidal thoughts in young adults who have previously attempted suicide. It aims to find a faster, mood-boosting treatment option for young people at risk.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–24 - NCT07635940Recruiting
Brain Stimulation and Social Thinking in Young Adults
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can improve how people understand social situations and process information. Researchers will use MRI scans to see how the brain changes during the treatment.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–60 - NCT06138678Recruiting
Accelerated TMS for severe depression
This trial tests an accelerated form of TMS (a treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain) for people with severe depression who have recently been in a psychiatric hospital. It aims to see if a faster schedule of TMS can help improve symptoms quickly.
KungälvAges 18 years+ - NCT07608588Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Language Recovery After Stroke
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people regain language skills after a left-sided stroke, particularly for word-finding and meaning difficulties. Researchers will target specific brain regions to see if stimulation improves recovery.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07603804Recruiting
Accelerated Brain Stimulation for Treatment-Resistant Depression
This study tests an accelerated form of iTBS (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) for depression that hasn't improved with antidepressant medications. The goal is to help people with major depression who haven't responded adequately to at least one antidepressant drug.

Brain Stimulation for Autism Spectrum Disorder Symptoms
This study tests whether a type of magnetic brain stimulation can help reduce autism symptoms and improve thinking skills in young people aged 8–30 with autism. Researchers will measure changes in symptoms, brain function, and brain scans over time.
TaoyuanAges 8–30 - NCT07561528Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Hard-to-Treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)—which uses magnetic pulses to activate brain cells—can help people with OCD whose symptoms haven't improved with medication. Researchers will also look at brain activity patterns to understand who benefits most.

Brain stimulation study for depression
This trial uses a technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (a gentle magnetic pulse) to see if activating a specific brain area helps people with depression feel more positive emotions. It involves brain imaging and memory tasks.
