Memory clinic study with fluid and cognitive tests
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at people who are being checked for memory or thinking problems. It uses standard tests done at the memory clinic, like a spinal tap and blood draw, plus memory and thinking tests, to learn more about these symptoms. You can join if these tests are already planned as part of your regular care, even if you don't take part in the study.

This research study looks at people who have noticed problems with memory or thinking (like trouble focusing or finding words) and visit their primary care doctor for help. It aims to better understand and diagnose conditions that cause these symptoms, such as Alzheimer's disease.
This study uses brain scans and a spinal fluid test to better understand memory and thinking changes in different groups, from people with healthy thinking to early or established dementia. If you qualify, it may help researchers learn what’s driving these conditions and how they progress.
This study looks at how well people think and remember as they age. It includes healthy volunteers, people with mild memory issues, and those with dementia—both early- and late-onset.
This study looks at how to better predict and understand Alzheimer's disease by using advanced brain scans and spinal fluid tests. It aims to find ways to identify people who stay healthy longer despite risk factors.
This study is testing whether simple blood tests can help doctors better understand the type and progression of memory or thinking problems in people with early dementia. It aims to improve confidence in the diagnosis and future outlook.
This study is testing whether a simple blood test can help diagnose Alzheimer's disease and predict how the disease will progress. If you have memory or thinking problems that have been getting worse, you may be able to join.
