Study of inherited neurological disorders and family genetics
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This research study evaluates people with inherited neurological conditions (nervous system disorders that run in families) and their relatives. Researchers aim to better understand these conditions and improve diagnosis through clinical exams and genetic testing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a known or suspected inherited neurological disease, or you are a blood relative of someone who does
- You are at least 2 years old
- You can understand and sign consent, or have a parent/guardian who can consent for you
- You do not have an active contagious disease that would prevent a proper neurological exam

This study uses a painless electrical method to record how muscles and nerves work over time. It aims to better understand normal patterns (healthy volunteers) and to learn how these signals change in people with neuromuscular or movement-related conditions.
This study looks at genetic causes of inherited heart (cardiovascular) and muscle/nerve (neuromuscular) conditions. You may be asked about your family history and possibly genetic samples to help connect symptoms to specific genetic changes.
This trial is building a biobank (a secure research collection) from people with neuromuscular diseases, their families, or healthy volunteers. By joining, you help researchers study these conditions and improve future treatments.
This study looks at DNA (genetic material) in people with movement disorders or dementia, and in some family members or healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand why these conditions happen and how genes may contribute.
This study looks at genes in people with inherited eye conditions and in close family members who may or may not have the condition. It helps researchers understand what causes these eye diseases and how they might be better studied in the future.
This study looks at brain, behavior, and genetic factors in people with neuropsychiatric or developmental disorders, as well as their biological relatives. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and find new ways to diagnose or treat them.
