Study database for brain signal markers in psychosis
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study builds a database of brain-signal measurements to help find “biomarkers” that may point to schizophrenia or related mental illnesses. Depending on whether you have a mental health diagnosis or you’re healthy, the study will collect information and brain data to compare groups.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be either: (1) diagnosed with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, or (2) a healthy volunteer with no severe past or current mental illness
- You must be able to give informed consent (and follow study instructions)
- You must be able to read, speak, and understand English
- Your vision must be corrected to about 20–40 or better (with glasses/contacts if needed)
- If you are in the mental illness group: no recent (last month) substance/alcohol abuse, and no alcohol dependence in the last 3 months

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study builds a database and collects samples (like blood) from people with schizophrenia to learn more about the condition. If you join, you help researchers understand schizophrenia better, which may lead to improved treatments.
This study looks at brain chemicals involved in “glutamate” and “GABA” signaling in people with schizophrenia (and separately in healthy volunteers). It may help researchers understand what’s going wrong in the brain and guide future treatments.
This study looks for a biological signature in the brain and blood to help doctors tell apart different types of psychosis early on. It may help people with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depression understand their condition better.
This study measures brain signals during scans to look for patterns linked to two types (subforms) of psychotic disorders. If you have schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and your symptoms have been stable, you may be able to help researchers understand these brain markers.
This study uses advanced MRI scans and visual perception tests to learn more about severe mental disorders like depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. It aims to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
This study looks at how immune system health relates to brain changes in people with schizophrenia. It uses brain imaging and electrical activity tests to understand these connections.
