Brain stimulation for vision loss after recent brain injury
This trial tests whether combining brain stimulation with visual exercises can help improve vision loss caused by a recent brain injury. It is designed for people in the early recovery phase (within 3 months of injury) who have visual field deficits, but not other conditions like neglect or eye movement problems.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07373366RecruitingPhase 2
Noninvasive brain stimulation for TBI patients and healthy volunteers
This trial tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation technique can help people who have suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI), specifically those with diffuse axonal injury (DAI). It also includes healthy volunteers for comparison.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT02916810Recruiting
TMS for persistent auditory hallucinations using a new setup
This study tests a specific brain stimulation approach (TMS) to help reduce auditory hallucinations in adults with schizophrenia who have not improved enough with medications. It may help by changing how the brain regions involved in hearing voices are stimulated.
Houston, TexasAges 18–50 - NCT07417943Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve movement in hereditary spastic paraplegia
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called neuromodulation) can improve walking, balance, and other movements in adults with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). It may be a good fit if you can walk with or without help, have stable spasticity medications, and don't have a pacemaker or epilepsy.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT07420322Recruiting
Testing brain stimulation for depression and related symptoms
This trial studies a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment for people with depression or related symptoms that haven't improved with standard treatments. The goal is to see how well it works in real-world settings.
MünchenAges 18 years+ - NCT07428460Recruiting
Speedy brain stimulation for persistent negative symptoms in schizophrenia
This trial tests if a new, faster form of brain stimulation called accelerated neuromodulation therapy can help reduce negative symptoms (like loss of motivation or social withdrawal) in people with schizophrenia. It aims to see if this treatment can improve daily functioning and quality of life.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–65 - NCT07433959Recruiting
Electrical stimulation to improve hand grip after spinal cord injury
This study tests a new way to use mild electrical pulses on your neck to help improve your ability to grip and grasp things. It may help if you have had a cervical spinal cord injury for at least a year and still have some finger movement.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18–75 - NCT07448532Recruiting
Comparing electrical stimulation and mirror therapy for foot drop after stroke
This trial compares two treatments—electrical stimulation and mirror therapy—to help people who had a stroke within the last 6 months lift their foot better when walking. The goal is to improve foot clearance and reduce trips or falls.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–85 - NCT07468032Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for stroke patients and healthy volunteers
This study uses brain stimulation (TMS) combined with EEG to understand how the brain controls movement speed after a stroke. It compares healthy volunteers to stroke survivors whose movement has slowed due to network problems, not direct damage to key brain regions.
Amiens, PicardieAges 18 years+ - NCT07260253Recruiting
Remote brain stimulation for language in primary progressive aphasia
This study tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS, done at home with remote supervision, can help improve language skills in people with the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia (PPA).

Understanding Nerve Stimulation for Bowel Problems in Children
This research study looks at using sacral neuromodulation—a treatment that uses mild electrical stimulation of nerves in the lower spine—to help children with bowel movement problems. Researchers want to understand how well this treatment works and what improvements matter most to patients and families.

Patient Outcomes in Spinal Disease Treatment
This study tracks how patients feel and function after receiving treatment for spinal disease (which may include procedures like spinal cord stimulation). Researchers want to understand what matters most to patients during their recovery.
Hasselt, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07578532Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation for Overactive Bladder After Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests two non-surgical treatments—magnetic and electrical nerve stimulation applied to the skin over the sacrum (base of spine)—to help control bladder overactivity in people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and improve bladder control.

This study tests whether combining a hand-therapy program (CIMT) with mild electrical brain stimulation (tDCS) helps women recover hand function and quality of life after a stroke. You would attend therapy sessions over several weeks while receiving non-invasive brain stimulation to help rewire your brain's movement control.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuromodulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 202 recruiting neuromodulation 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 neuromodulation 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 neuromodulation 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.
