WarsawAges 18–65 - NCT06392867Recruiting
Brain stimulation for stubborn depression: intensity study
This study tests a type of brain stimulation called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) for people with depression that hasn't improved with at least two antidepressants. Researchers want to see if a faster version of TMS (theta-burst stimulation) helps reduce depression symptoms.
Hong KongAges 18–70 - NCT06449326Recruiting
Brain imaging and stimulation study for PTSD in veterans
This study uses brain scans and a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to help reduce PTSD symptoms in veterans. You may be eligible if you have ongoing PTSD symptoms and are on stable medication.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 18–80 - NCT06494059Recruiting

This study tests a new type of non-invasive stimulation (brain and spine) to help improve movement in people with spinal cord injury. It targets arm, leg, or trunk function depending on your injury level.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - 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 - NCT06579664Recruiting
Brain stimulation for memory loss from small vessel disease
This trial tests whether a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation can improve memory and thinking in people whose cognitive problems are caused by cerebral small vessel disease (damage to the small blood vessels in the brain). You may qualify if you have mild memory or thinking issues that have lasted at least three months.
BeijingAges 45–80 - NCT06608316Recruiting
Brain stimulation for memory loss in older adults
This study tests a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation called iTBS to see if it can improve memory in older adults with mild memory problems. It may be a good option if you are generally healthy, independent, and have noticed your memory slipping but still do your daily activities on your own.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 65 years+ - NCT06642675Recruiting
Brain stimulation for negative symptoms in schizophrenia
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called nTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help reduce negative symptoms of schizophrenia, like lack of motivation or social withdrawal. It's a possible treatment option for people with stable schizophrenia who still struggle with these symptoms.
Changsha, HunanAges Up to 60 years - NCT06669182Recruiting
Cerebellar TMS for Alzheimer's Disease
This trial uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (TMS) to target the cerebellum in people with Alzheimer's disease. It aims to see if this treatment can improve symptoms and cognitive function.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 50–85 - NCT06740747Recruiting
Brain stimulation for schizophrenia symptoms
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation (called intermittent theta-burst stimulation) to see if it helps with symptoms like lack of motivation or trouble thinking clearly in people with schizophrenia. You will also have an MRI scan to see how the brain changes.
Hanover, Lower SaxonyAges 18–65 - NCT06746922Recruiting
Brain stimulation for fibromyalgia pain
This study tests a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) to see if it can help reduce pain and improve daily function in people with fibromyalgia. It may offer a new option for managing your pain without medication changes.
Izmir, KarabaglarAges 18–65 - NCT06902571Recruiting
Testing brain activity during magnetic stimulation
This study uses two types of brain scans (fNIRS and fMRI) to see how a magnetic stimulation technique called iTBS affects brain blood flow. Healthy volunteers are needed to help validate how well these methods measure brain response.
Hong Kong, Hung HomAges 18–60 - NCT06940609RecruitingPhase 2
Brain scan study for Long COVID brain fog
This trial studies if brain scans can help understand 'brain fog' in Long COVID. It also looks at how a gentle magnetic stimulation might affect symptoms. If you have ongoing thinking problems after COVID, this study may help find new ways to help.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 18–80 - NCT06941961Recruiting
Brain stimulation therapy after stroke clot removal
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS can help people recover motor function after a stroke caused by a large clot in the front part of the brain. It is for patients who had the clot removed successfully with a procedure within 24 hours of symptoms starting.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–85 - NCT06976840Recruiting
Rapid antidepressant effects of new brain stimulation methods

Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–55 - NCT07025720Recruiting
Brain stimulation for depression and suicide risk in young people
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) for young people ages 15-25 who are having serious depression and suicidal thoughts. The goal is to see if this treatment can help reduce risk and improve mood.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 15–25 - NCT07026461RecruitingPhase 4
TMS for depression: comparing two brain stimulation methods
This trial compares two types of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to see which works better for people with depression. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in mood regulation.
ÖrebroAges 18 years+ - NCT07065669Recruiting
TMS for teens with OCD
This study tests if transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help treat obsessive-compulsive disorder in adolescents aged 13-17. It aims to see if this treatment can reduce OCD symptoms when added to stable medications or therapy.
