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 - 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 - NCT06469515Recruiting
Thinking recovery after heart surgery in older adults
This study looks at how older adults recover their thinking and memory skills after heart surgery. You may be asked to do simple computer or paper tests to see how your brain heals.
GothenburgAges 65 years+ - NCT06515041Recruiting
Can museum visits boost brain health?

Moscow, Moscow OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT06597591Recruiting
Virtual reality training to improve self-control in memory loss patients
This study tests whether a virtual reality training game can help improve your ability to stop yourself or control impulses, which can be affected in early memory problems. You will use a VR headset to practice these skills in a safe, fun environment.
NiceAges 60 years+ - NCT06599879Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neurocognition?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 173 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.
