Can a sleep medication protect the brain after heart surgery?
This study tests whether a medicine called dexmedetomidine, given after heart surgery, can help prevent confusion and thinking problems in older adults during their intensive care stay. If you are 60 or older and having heart surgery with a heart-lung machine, this trial might be for you.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06169150Recruiting
Studying nervous system issues in immune disorders
This study looks for and tracks nervous system problems in people with immune system disorders. It aims to better understand how infections or inflammation affect the brain and nerves in these patients.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT06083467Recruiting
Brain imaging study for Parkinson's and related disorders
This study uses brain imaging and tests to better understand Parkinson's disease and related conditions. It aims to improve diagnosis by comparing scans across different groups of people.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 40–85 - NCT06033027Recruiting
Testing a soft robotic glove for hand help
This trial tests a soft robotic glove that helps you grip and hold objects if your hand is weak due to a nerve problem or injury. It's meant for people who have trouble with daily tasks like eating or dressing.
Enschede, OverijsselAges 18–90 - NCT06032026RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Brain imaging study of tracer distribution in Parkinson's and related conditions
This study uses a special imaging tracer to see how it moves through the body and brain. It may help researchers understand brain changes in Parkinson's disease and related conditions.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 40–80 - NCT05993390Recruiting
Reversing muscle relaxants in ICU patients
This trial tests two medicines that help reverse the muscle-relaxing drugs given to patients on breathing tubes in the intensive care unit. The goal is to see which one works better and faster so patients can wake up sooner.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 19–90 - NCT05925621Recruiting
Registry for early Alzheimer-related memory problems
This study registry collects health and brain-testing information for people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer’s dementia. It may help researchers better understand early Alzheimer disease and plan future treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50–95 - NCT04855825Recruiting
Wearable robotic exoskeleton to improve walking and thinking in MS

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neurology?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 375 recruiting neurology 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 neurology 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 neurology 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.
