Brain stimulation plus cognitive training for mild TBI memory and thinking
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies whether brain stimulation through the scalp can improve cognitive (thinking and memory) training in people with chronic mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants train on thinking tasks while receiving a targeted “control network neuromodulation” approach to see if it enhances training results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18–59
- Have had a mild TBI with quick loss of consciousness (or brain-function change) lasting less than 30 minutes
- Be injured between 3 months and 5 years ago
- Have had post-injury confusion/memory loss (post-traumatic amnesia) for less than 24 hours
- Have ongoing self-reported thinking problems after TBI (on their questionnaire score thresholds)
- Be able to do the study in English and be on stable psychiatric medicines for at least 2 months

This study tests if a wearable brain stimulation device (tDCS) combined with computer-based training can improve attention and concentration in older veterans with a history of mild brain injury. It involves several sessions from home using a headset and computer.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can help improve symptoms after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). If you've had a TBI at least two years ago, this could help you.
This trial tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (tDCS) can improve word-retrieval problems after a mild or moderate concussion-like brain injury. It may help if testing shows trouble finding the right words when speaking.
This study uses brain stimulation and MRI scans to learn more about memory problems in people with neurodegenerative diseases or brain injuries. It may help researchers understand how to improve treatment.
This study tests whether a combination of brain stimulation and cognitive training can reduce depression symptoms in people who have ongoing mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help by targeting both mood and thinking/processing skills affected after mTBI.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can improve memory and thinking in veterans who have both a past mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). You would receive the stimulation remotely, from home, for about an hour a day.
