This study tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help improve memory and thinking in people with dementia. By measuring your brain waves first, researchers hope to tailor the stimulation to your specific needs.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 55 years+ - NCT07667478Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for early Alzheimer's memory loss
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic brain stimulation technique can help improve memory in people with early Alzheimer's disease. It may be an option if you have mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's and have had a positive blood test for Alzheimer's markers.
Houston, TexasAges 55–90 - NCT07663578Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for epilepsy patients and healthy volunteers
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation method called TIEFS. It uses safe electric fields to see how it affects thinking and brain waves. You may join if you are having brain surgery for epilepsy or are a healthy adult.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07636304Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Brain stimulation for inflammatory bowel disease remission
This study tests whether a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve (a major nerve in your neck) can affect brain function in people whose IBD is in remission. Researchers want to understand if this stimulation might help reduce inflammation or improve symptoms in the future.
Gdansk, Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07629687Recruiting
Ear Nerve Stimulation for Balance After Stroke
This trial tests a non-invasive device that stimulates a nerve in your ear to help improve balance and body control after stroke. It may help you regain stability and reduce symptoms like muscle tightness.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT05877560Recruiting
Noninvasive brain stimulation for eye focusing trouble
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment to improve symptoms of convergence insufficiency, a condition that makes near vision tasks like reading harder. You may be randomly assigned to the study treatment or a comparison condition.
Downers Grove, IllinoisAges 18–40 - NCT07594795Recruiting
Non-invasive brain stimulation safety and feasibility study
This research tests a new, non-invasive method to stimulate deep brain areas using electrical fields applied to the scalp. The study aims to understand how safe and effective this approach is in healthy adults, which could eventually help treat neurological or psychiatric conditions.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–50 - NCT07560904Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Memory in Cognitive Decline
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique to help improve working memory (the ability to hold and use information briefly) in people with mild cognitive impairment related to Parkinson's disease or Lewy body disease. The stimulation targets deep brain structures without surgery.
BrnoAges 60–80 - NCT05560724Recruiting
Brain stimulation after stroke to track recovery signals
This study looks at whether brain stimulation and brain scans can help measure recovery after an ischemic stroke. It may help researchers understand who benefits from non-invasive brain stimulation by using brain “signal” markers.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07523685Recruiting
Vagus Nerve Stimulation for PTSD Treatment
This study tests a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve (a major nerve in your neck) to help reduce PTSD symptoms. The device is worn on the skin and may help ease trauma-related stress and anxiety.
Sunnyvale, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT07469384Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for schizophrenia using tDCS
This study tests whether a mild form of brain stimulation called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help improve symptoms of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. tDCS uses small electrodes on the scalp to gently stimulate brain areas involved in vision and thinking.
Orangeburg, New YorkAges 18–55 - NCT07438964Recruiting
Brain stimulation for MS fatigue
This study uses a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique to see if it can reduce fatigue in people with relapsing-remitting MS. It compares people with and without fatigue to understand how the brain is affected.

Can brain stimulation help adults who stutter speak more fluently?
This study uses a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique to see if it can reduce speech errors in adults who have stuttered since childhood. If you are 22 or older, speak English as your main language, and have developmental stuttering, you may be able to join.
Richardson, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT07346989Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve function in frail older adults
This study uses a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called transcranial direct current stimulation, or tDCS) to see if it can improve physical function and daily activities in older adults who are showing early signs of frailty. You will be asked to do some simple exercises and cognitive tasks while receiving or not receiving the stimulation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for non-invasive brain stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 68 recruiting non-invasive brain stimulation 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 non-invasive brain stimulation 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 non-invasive brain stimulation 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.
