Neurofeedback and brain stimulation to improve attention
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial studies whether training your brain signals (neurofeedback) and sending gentle pulses to the brain (transcranial pulse stimulation) can improve attention. You might be a candidate if you’re an adult with below-threshold sustained attention scores and meet safety and health requirements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re at least 20 years old
- You’re right-handed
- Your hearing and vision are normal or can be corrected with glasses/contacts
- You have basic reading and writing skills
- Your attention test shows lower-than-threshold “sustained attention” scores
- You do not have certain brain, thinking, mood, or medical conditions that would rule you out

This trial tests whether gentle ultrasound pulses to specific brain areas can affect brain activity and behavior. Healthy volunteers aged 18–65 are needed.
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help children with ADHD improve their attention. If it works, it could offer a new non-medication option.
This trial studies whether brain-based feedback training (called neurofeedback) can improve attention and task performance. It is being done in healthy adults to see how effective the training is and what changes might occur.
This trial tests if a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (accelerated iTBS) can improve working memory or impulse control in adolescents with ADHD. It involves MRI scans and TMS sessions to see which thinking skill benefits most.
This trial tests a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) to see if it can improve ADHD symptoms in adults. It is a non-invasive treatment that uses a weak electrical current passed through electrodes on the scalp—no surgery or needles involved.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called iTBS) can improve attention problems in people with major depression. If you have depression and trouble focusing, this trial might help understand a new treatment option.
