Recruiting studies
- NCT02107989Recruiting
MRI and brain scans before epilepsy surgery
This study collects noninvasive brain scan data (mainly MRI, sometimes MEG) from people being evaluated for focal epilepsy surgery, and from healthy volunteers. It aims to build reference “normal” brain images and improve how doctors plan and interpret epilepsy surgery evaluations.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–120 - 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 - NCT01730131Recruiting
Study of PML in patients, at-risk people, and healthy volunteers
This study follows people with suspected or confirmed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), people at higher risk, and healthy volunteers. It uses visits, brain imaging (MRI), and stored biological samples to better understand how PML progresses and who is at risk.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT01524276Recruiting
Registry to track outcomes of Medtronic medical devices
This is a follow-up registry that collects information from people who have (or will receive) an eligible Medtronic device. It helps the company and doctors better understand how the device works in real-world use.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT00704626Enrolling by invitation
Blood antibody tests in autoimmune brain and nerve diseases
This study looks at blood “auto-antibodies,” which are immune proteins that may attack the body, in people with certain brain and nerve conditions. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and how the immune system is involved.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00857922Recruiting
Neuroscience research repository for brain-related patients
This study collects information and/or tissue for a research library from people who have had neurosurgery and from certain family members. It helps researchers study brain, blood-vessel, injury, tumor, and related conditions.
Houston, TexasAges birth+ - NCT00001778Recruiting
Understanding HTLV Infection and HAM/TSP Disease
This research study evaluates people with HTLV infection, a virus that can cause a nerve disorder called HAM/TSP. Researchers want to better understand who gets this condition and why, which may help develop future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT01273129Recruiting
Surgery for epilepsy that medicines cannot control
This trial looks at using brain surgery to treat epilepsy that does not improve with usual medicines, or epilepsy caused by a brain tumor. It may help some people reduce seizures if surgery is appropriate for their situation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–99 - NCT00001248Recruiting
MRI Brain Imaging Study for Multiple Sclerosis
This research study uses MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)—a safe, non-invasive scanner—to take detailed pictures of your brain and understand how multiple sclerosis (MS) affects it over time. You may qualify whether you have MS or are a healthy volunteer for comparison.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00009243Recruiting
Understanding How Strokes Develop: A Research Study
This study follows people who have had or are at risk for stroke to understand what causes strokes and how they develop over time. By participating, you help researchers learn more about stroke prevention and treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–120 - NCT00001208Recruiting
Botulinum toxin for involuntary movement and muscle disorders
This study tests botulinum toxin (a medication that relaxes muscles) to treat various involuntary movements like tremors, muscle spasms, or uncontrolled facial movements. The goal is to see if this treatment can reduce your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT00271622Recruiting
Screening test for child or adult brain and behavior patterns
This study uses a structured check-up to learn about how someone’s thinking, behavior, and development may differ from typical patterns. It involves an interview and possibly medical, nervous-system, and blood or urine tests to understand what kinds of issues might be present.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month+ - NCT00018889Recruiting
Understanding Movement Disorders Through Genetics and Traits
This research study helps scientists understand how genes and family traits connect to movement disorders like Parkinson's disease or tremor. You may be asked to answer questions about your symptoms, provide family history, and possibly have an MRI scan to help researchers learn more about these conditions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT00598351Recruiting
Study tracks changes in NF2 using repeated brain scans
This study follows people with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) over time to learn how the condition changes, using repeat MRI scans. The information may help researchers understand disease patterns and improve future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–75 - NCT00004577Recruiting
New Brain Imaging Methods Research Study
This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120

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.
