Handwriting practice program for children with poorer handwriting
This study tests a handwriting practice program designed to improve a child’s handwriting. It may help by teaching skills in a structured way, but it is meant for children whose main challenge is handwriting—not severe brain, sensory, or reading/language problems.
TaipeiAges 7–12 - NCT05260307Recruiting
Improving hearing of multiple voices and speech understanding
This study tests ways to improve how people perceive space in sound and understand speech when many voices are talking at once. It may help adults with normal hearing or hearing loss better follow conversations in noisy, “overlapping voices” situations.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT05458037Recruiting
Testing fast versus slow numbing during IUD or biopsy
This study compares two ways of applying a numbing tool (“tenaculum”) during an IUD insertion or an endometrial biopsy to see which one causes less pain. If you’re scheduled for one of these procedures, it may help improve how discomfort is managed.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05486637RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Hearing aid and implant study using voice emotion prompts
This early-phase study checks how well people understand emotions in voices when they have a cochlear implant (or normal hearing). It may help improve communication training and support for patients and families.
Tempe, ArizonaAges 6–80 - NCT05634356Recruiting
Study of how early speech learning changes with social input
This study looks at how infants learn speech sounds through everyday social interaction, like parent talk. It may help researchers understand what supports early speech development, including in babies with typical hearing and those with hearing loss or hearing devices.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 7 months–2 years - NCT05677321Recruiting
Study how taste and smell differ in alcohol use disorder
This study compares how people with alcohol use disorder and people without it experience taste and smell. It also checks brain activity during taste/smell testing to understand individual differences that may be linked to alcohol use.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT05694650Recruiting
Share views on cancer care at home
This study asks patients, caregivers, and cancer team members to share their experiences with “care at home” for people receiving or recently finishing cancer treatment. Your feedback will help the hospital understand what’s working and what could be improved.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05772052Recruiting
Study taste and eating changes in adults with obesity
This trial looks at how eating patterns and taste perception differ in people with obesity. It may help researchers understand what influences appetite and taste, which could improve future treatments.
MilanAges 18–60 - NCT05874362Recruiting
Study grief after violent loss and how time is perceived
This study looks at how people who recently lost a close family member to a violent death experience grief, including how they perceive time. It may help researchers understand these effects and better plan future support for bereaved people.
BronAges 18–65 - NCT05916287Recruiting
STANISLAS cohort follow-up visit for heart and kidney health
This study is a follow-up visit for people who joined the STANISLAS family health cohort. Researchers look at how genes and environment may affect heart and kidney (kidneys) health over time.

Ibuprofen before mouth surgery to reduce pain sensing
This trial studies whether taking ibuprofen before tooth extraction and bone graft surgery can lower how much pain you feel afterward. It may help by changing the body’s pain response during healing.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05957549Recruiting
Tracking early sound perception in young children
This study uses special brain-monitoring tools (fNIRS and EEG) to look at how preschool-aged children process sounds. It may help researchers understand early sound perception differences, especially in children with Fragile X Syndrome.

LyonAges 7–17 - NCT06088589Recruiting
Speech-in-noise in autism and fragile x
This study measures how well people with autism or fragile X syndrome perceive speech in noisy settings, compared to typically developing individuals. It uses EEG to understand brain activity during listening tasks.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 15–35 - NCT06138522Recruiting
How Teens View Changes in PTSD Therapy

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for perception?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 210 recruiting perception 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 perception 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 perception 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.
