Ambāla, HaryanaAges 18–75 - NCT07409506Recruiting
How caregivers help people with Alzheimer's
This study looks at the support that caregivers provide to people with Alzheimer's disease at different stages. It helps researchers understand how caregiving changes over time, which can lead to better support for both patients and their families.
VilleurbanneAges 60 years+ - NCT06701630Recruiting
Italian study of daily thinking and memory scales
This study is testing new questionnaires to better understand everyday thinking and memory problems in older adults. It aims to improve how doctors identify and track conditions like mild cognitive impairment and early dementia.
Milan, MichiganAges 60 years+ - NCT07390136Recruiting
Brain development study for babies with and without early brain injury
This study looks at how babies' brains develop, comparing infants who had a brain injury around birth with healthy babies. It could help understand early thinking and learning abilities.
Madison, WisconsinAges 3 months–2 years - NCT05312983Recruiting
Testing new hearing tests to better diagnose age-related hearing loss
This study is developing a set of hearing tests to more precisely identify age-related hearing loss. It may help you (or the study team) better understand what type of hearing problem you have and how to guide next steps.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07347431Recruiting
AI tool to understand memory clinic experiences
This study uses a computer program to understand how people with memory problems and their carers talk about their experiences. It aims to help doctors better support dementia care.
North ShieldsAges 65 years+ - NCT07320209Recruiting
Brain and Body Responses to Virtual Reality Food Cues
This trial uses virtual reality to show you different food cues, like chocolate biscuits or pickles, and measures your brain activity and body responses to understand how these cues affect you. It may help researchers learn more about food cravings and eating behaviors.
Istanbul, MaltepeAges 18 years+ - NCT06262529Recruiting
Thinking after a Stroke: A Study of Memory and Thinking
This study looks at thinking and memory problems in younger adults (18 to 45) who have had an ischemic stroke. It aims to understand how a stroke affects the brain's ability to think clearly.
CannesAges 18–45 - NCT07272811Recruiting
Computer memory testing for early Alzheimer's signs
This study uses a computer-based platform to test memory and thinking in healthy adults and in people with mild memory concerns (called aMCI). The goal is to better understand how memory changes with age and to spot early signs of Alzheimer's disease.
Milan, ItalyAges 55–80 - NCT06150352Recruiting
Sleep apnea and memory in older adults with mild concerns
This trial looks at how sleep apnea affects memory and brain health in people who have mild memory problems or are worried about their memory. You will have a sleep study and brain scans to see if treating sleep apnea could help protect your thinking skills.
Hong KongAges 50–80 - NCT06466096Recruiting
Thinking and memory after stomach/colon cancer surgery
This study looks at how older adults (65+) think and remember after surgery for gastrointestinal cancer. It compares those who have temporary confusion after surgery with those who don't, to understand long-term changes in brain function.
BeijingAges 65–100 - NCT06466083Recruiting
Thinking changes after spine surgery in older adults
This study looks at why some older adults have confusion or memory changes after spine surgery. It aims to find patterns that could help prevent these problems.
BeijingAges 65–100 - NCT06423547Recruiting
Predicting confusion after surgery in older adults
This study looks at older patients (65 and older) who have had surgery and anesthesia. It aims to find who is at risk for confusion (delirium) and memory problems afterward. The goal is to help doctors prevent these issues.
BeijingAges 65–100 - NCT06545786Recruiting
Brain monitoring during surgery to prevent confusion
This study uses a special brain-wave monitor during your surgery to see if it can predict confusion or memory problems afterward. It may help you and your doctors better understand your recovery.
Moscow, Moscow OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT06779487Recruiting
Predicting memory changes from brain radiation
This study looks for biomarkers in your blood that might predict how radiation treatment affects brain function. The goal is to understand and possibly reduce cognitive side effects.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 5–39 - NCT07200180RecruitingPhase 3
Argon gas to protect brain function after carotid surgery
This trial tests if breathing argon gas during and after surgery can help prevent thinking and memory problems in patients having carotid artery surgery. If effective, it could speed up recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neurocognition?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 164 recruiting neurocognition 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 neurocognition 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 neurocognition 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.
