Brain MRI study to improve brain imaging for drug research
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses advanced MRI brain scans to better show how the brain responds to medicines (drug-related effects). You may also do extra safety screening and non-invasive brain stimulation for some parts of the research.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 80 years old and able to give informed consent
- Be male, or if you can get pregnant, be non-pregnant
- Be able to safely do an MRI scan (or be able to handle a closed scanner if needed)
- Have no major medical problems that could affect the brain measurements
- Have no serious untreated psychiatric or neurological conditions
- Speak English well enough to understand study safety steps and questionnaires

This study uses brain imaging (MRI) and tasks to better understand what’s happening in the brain in addiction. It may help researchers improve how addiction is studied and measured using brain-based methods.
This study uses MRI techniques to measure natural chemical “metabolites” in the brain and muscle. You may be able to join if you’re generally healthy and can safely complete a long MRI scan.
This study tests how a non-invasive magnetic stimulation technique affects the brain in healthy volunteers. It involves MRI scans and aims to understand brain function without surgery.
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.
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure natural brain chemicals. It helps researchers understand how the brain works in healthy people, which may inform future treatments.
This study uses MRI scans to check and improve how medical teams measure brain changes. If you’re eligible, you’ll complete MRI safety screening and imaging while the team studies which scan measurements work best.
