This study follows people (or family members of people) who have or might have a movement disorder to better understand how symptoms change over time. You may be asked to attend study visits and complete study procedures for the duration of the study.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT02119611Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s, dystonia, or tremor
This study tests deep brain stimulation (DBS), a therapy that sends electrical signals to the brain, for movement problems like Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. It may help people whose symptoms are not controlled enough with medications, or who already have a DBS device and need ongoing management.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT01581580Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation surgery for movement disorders
This study looks at whether deep brain stimulation surgery can help people with certain movement problems, chosen by a specialized team. You may be considered if medicines (or other treatments) aren’t controlling your symptoms well enough or if the condition causes major disability.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT03225144Recruiting
Study of gene and disease changes in ALS and frontotemporal dementia
This study looks at complex brain and body changes in people with ALS and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), or related disorders. If you have one of these diagnoses—or a known gene mutation that can cause ALS/FTD—you may be able to help researchers learn how the conditions progress.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–110 - NCT05350774Enrolling by invitationPhase 2

What taking part in a neurologic disorder study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there neurologic disorder clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 56 recruiting neurologic disorder studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a neurologic disorder study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a neurologic disorder trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New neurologic disorder studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
