Brain scan study for young adults responding to programs
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses brain scans and follow-up surveys to understand how young adults respond to programs. It may help if you are a right-handed young adult without a history of brain injury or certain mental health conditions.

This study looks at how the brain reacts to cues that signal rewards in young adults ages 18 to 22. Participants will do computer tasks and have an MRI scan to understand differences in how people respond to reward-related signals.
This study is looking at ways to increase “alcohol abstinence,” meaning drinking less or stopping. It focuses on young adults who currently drink and have symptoms of alcohol use disorder, and it may help them build skills to reduce or stop drinking.
This study uses a special brain scan to look at how alcohol use affects energy production in brain cells. It may help researchers find new ways to treat alcohol use disorder.
This study looks at how certain learning mechanisms in the brain (called Pavlovian conditioning) influence your ability to control alcohol or drug use. It may help explain why some people have trouble stopping, and could lead to better treatments. You'll fill out questionnaires and likely have a brain scan (MRI).
This study uses a special brain scan (PET) to look at a protein called PDE4B in people with alcohol use disorder. The goal is to better understand how alcohol affects the brain, which may lead to new treatments.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation to help with day-to-day functioning in people who have alcohol use disorder and a history of mild traumatic brain injury. It also uses brain and symptom testing to see who may benefit most and why.
