Study of thinking and hand skills after brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how people with an injury to the back part of the brain (posterior parietal cortex) process what they see and guide their movements. It may help researchers better understand the symptoms and improve future therapies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 75 years old
- Have normal vision or vision that can be corrected with glasses/contacts
- Have signed informed consent (agree in writing) to take part
- For patient participants: have an MRI-confirmed injury in the posterior parietal cortex
- Be able to understand and carry out the study tasks (no major sensory, motor, or psychiatric problems that stop you from doing them)

This study tests an attention-focused training approach to help people improve how the brain inhibits or filters information. It may be relevant after certain stroke-related attention problems, and also for people with ADHD, or for healthy volunteers for comparison.
This study looks at how the brain works when people who are blind (from birth or early childhood) touch and move. It uses an MRI brain scan to compare responses, aiming to better understand learning and brain processing in early visual loss.
This study looks at how people’s arm/hand movement and attention-thinking skills work after brain injury or cerebral palsy. You might be invited to tasks and simple instructions to help researchers understand function and possible support strategies.
This study uses visual training exercises you can do at home on your computer to try to restore some vision lost after a stroke. It also involves a few days of testing and brain scans (MRI) at our lab to see how the training works.
This study tests whether the brain can improve vision after damage caused by stroke, tumor, or injury. It may help people with vision loss from a brain lesion find new ways to see better.
This study tests whether vision rehabilitation exercises done at home, guided by brain imaging, can help people regain vision after a stroke, brain injury, or tumor. Participants will use brain scans to personalize their therapy.
