Brain–computer interface study for voice spasms from laryngeal dystonia
This study tests how a brain–computer interface reads brain signals to understand and possibly support people with a specific voice condition called adductor laryngeal dystonia. It also compares results with healthy people to help researchers see how brain activity differs during voice tasks.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05277714Recruiting
Neurofeedback for food addiction in people with obesity
This trial tests whether brain-training feedback using near-infrared sensors (a painless light-based brain measure) can reduce food addiction behaviors in people with obesity. If you qualify for obesity surgery and have food addiction signs, you may be offered this therapy and monitored during the study.
RennesAges 18–55 - NCT05456958Recruiting
Brain training with fMRI feedback for PTSD symptoms
This trial tests a multi-session brain-training approach that uses MRI scans to help teach your brain patterns in PTSD. If you qualify, you’ll attend several sessions and the study team will look at whether symptoms improve.
London, OntarioAges 18–65 - NCT05622344Recruiting
Neurofeedback training to improve balance in vestibular schwannoma
This study tests whether brain “neurofeedback” training, along with a balance rehab plan, can help people with dizziness/balance symptoms from unilateral vestibular schwannoma. You may qualify if you can follow the study schedule and safely move your head and walk during testing.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–70 - NCT05924659Recruiting
Neurofeedback training to improve attention
This trial studies whether brain-based feedback training (called neurofeedback) can improve attention and task performance. It is being done in healthy adults to see how effective the training is and what changes might occur.
Brétigny-sur-OrgeAges 18–59 - NCT05986643Recruiting
Brain training game to improve balance in Parkinson's
This trial tests a brain-training game designed to improve balance in people with Parkinson's disease. You may be eligible if you have mild to moderate Parkinson's, have had a fall and freezing episodes in the past year, and are not very active.
LeicesterAges Any age - NCT06050070Recruiting
Using Real-Time Brain Imaging to Help Depression
This study tests whether real-time brain imaging (fMRI) can help people with depression learn to change their brain activity. You will receive feedback on your brain signals while thinking positive or neutral thoughts.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–55 - NCT06369714Recruiting
Brain-training video game for ADHD in children
This trial tests a digital therapy that uses neurofeedback (brainwave training) to help children with ADHD improve focus and attention. It's designed for kids ages 6 to 11 who haven't had ADHD treatment in the last month.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 6–12 - NCT06426693Recruiting
Brain training for food cravings
This study tests a brain-training technique called neurofeedback to help reduce food cravings. You'll get MRI scans while learning to control brain activity related to cravings.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–60 - NCT06503484Recruiting
Brain training with light for stroke arm recovery
This trial tests whether a brain-computer interface (BCI) using near-infrared light can help stroke survivors improve hand and arm movement. You'll receive a type of brain training called neurofeedback during the study.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 18–75 - NCT06563310Recruiting
Brain Training for Anxiety Using Neurofeedback
This study tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help people with certain anxiety disorders learn to change how they think about upsetting situations. Participants will do thinking exercises while an MRI machine measures their brain activity, which helps them see if they are using the right coping strategies.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18–24 - NCT06675240Recruiting
Meditative neurofeedback for depression
This trial tests whether a technique that combines meditation with real-time brain activity feedback can help treat depression. It may help if you have moderate depression and are not currently struggling with substance abuse, psychosis, bipolar disorder, or suicidal behavior.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06690931Recruiting
Brain training with electrical stimulation and virtual reality for Parkinson's
This study tests a new type of therapy that combines brain training (neurofeedback), mild electrical stimulation to help with movement, and virtual reality exercises. It aims to improve walking and movement for people with Parkinson's disease.
Schiedlberg, Upper AustriaAges 40–80 - NCT06852209Recruiting
Brain training with neurofeedback after a stroke
This study tests a brain-training technique called neurofeedback to see if it can improve thinking skills after a stroke. If you have ongoing memory or attention problems despite recovery, this trial may help you train your brain using real-time feedback from your own brain activity.
BordeauxAges 18–75 - NCT07088107Recruiting
Brain training with TMS and fNIRS for arm recovery after stroke
This trial uses a brain-computer interface (TMS and fNIRS) to help people with chronic stroke regain arm function. It tests if combining brain stimulation with real-time brain activity feedback can improve movement.
Hong KongAges 18–80 - NCT07262528Recruiting
Brain training for hand recovery after stroke
This trial tests a brain-based training method (neurofeedback) to help improve hand movement after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke in the last 3 months and still have weakness on one side.
RzeszówAges 18–70 - NCT07559656Recruiting
Oxytocin and Brain Training for Emotional Awareness
This study tests whether a nasal spray called oxytocin, combined with real-time brain imaging feedback, can help train a specific brain region involved in emotions and body awareness. Researchers will use MRI scans to show you your own brain activity in real time.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–30 - NCT07595783Recruiting
Brain Training for Children With ADHD Using Neurofeedback
This study tests a new type of brain training called neurofeedback to help children with ADHD. Children complete sessions where they learn to control their own brain activity, which may improve attention and focus.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neurofeedback?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 70 recruiting neurofeedback 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 neurofeedback 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 neurofeedback 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.
