Recruiting studies
- NCT01434368Recruiting
Understanding brain and hormone changes during puberty
This study follows children and young adults through puberty to understand how hormones and brain development change together using MRI scans and other tests. If you or your child are healthy and fall into one of the study's age ranges, this research could help explain how puberty affects the brain.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–35 - NCT01327690RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Group therapy for mental health in veterans and families
This early-stage study looks at mental health outcomes for active-duty service members, veterans, and their family members after participating in group therapy sessions. If you can follow instructions and complete consent forms, this trial may help researchers understand how group therapy affects well-being in these communities.
Santa Rosa, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT01132885Recruiting
Brain scans in children with Williams syndrome
This study uses brain testing—often MRI scans—to learn how the brains of children with Williams syndrome are different from typical development. It may help researchers better describe brain patterns and improve future care for people with Williams syndrome.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5–99 - NCT00397111Recruiting
MRI brain-scanning study of mood and anxiety in adults
This study uses brain MRI scans and mental tasks to better understand mood and anxiety problems. It may help researchers develop improved MRI methods for studying depression and healthy brain function.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00024635Recruiting
Understanding Mood and Anxiety Disorders Study
This research study evaluates people with mood disorders (like depression or bipolar disorder), anxiety disorders, or people without these conditions to better understand how these conditions develop and affect the brain. Researchers will ask questions and may do other assessments to learn more.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–99 - NCT00018057RecruitingPhase 2
Brain study of pediatric anxiety disorders
This study looks at how the brain works in children and adults with anxiety disorders. It uses brain scans (fMRI) and other safe tests to understand anxiety better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–65 - NCT00001360Recruiting
Studying brain blood flow during thinking
This study looks at how blood flow in the brain changes while you are thinking. You will do tasks while having brain scans to help researchers understand normal brain activity.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00025935Recruiting
Brain function study in children with mood problems
This study looks at how the brain works and how mood disorders change over time in children and teens with severe irritability, anger, and temper outbursts. It includes brain scans and regular check-ins to understand the illness better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–85 - NCT00271622Recruiting
Screening test for child or adult brain and behavior patterns
This study uses a structured check-up to learn about how someone’s thinking, behavior, and development may differ from typical patterns. It involves an interview and possibly medical, nervous-system, and blood or urine tests to understand what kinds of issues might be present.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month+ - NCT01266577Recruiting
MRI study measuring brain and muscle chemical levels
This study uses MRI techniques to measure natural chemical “metabolites” in the brain and muscle. You may be able to join if you’re generally healthy and can safely complete a long MRI scan.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00109174Recruiting
Brain chemical scan for healthy participants
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure natural brain chemicals. It helps researchers understand how the brain works in healthy people, which may inform future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT01087281Recruiting
Testing how brain “top-down” attention helps visual processing
This study looks at how signals from the brain’s thinking/attention systems affect how we process what we see. It may help researchers understand brain attention after stroke or other focal brain injuries, and compare with healthy volunteers.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mentalization?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 900 recruiting mentalization 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 mentalization 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 mentalization 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.
