Brain Wiring Study in Schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans to look at brain changes in people with schizophrenia. It aims to understand how the brain's wiring (called white matter) changes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 15 and 45 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with schizophrenia or a related condition like schizoaffective disorder or psychosis.
- You are able to understand and agree to the study procedures (informed consent).
- You cannot have metal implants or severe claustrophobia, because you will have an MRI scan.
- You cannot have a medical condition like arthritis that affects your hands.
- You cannot have had a drug or alcohol problem (other than nicotine) in the last 6 months.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a brain scan called magnetoencephalography (MEG) to understand brain activity in people with schizophrenia. It may help researchers learn more about the condition and could lead to better treatments.
This trial uses brain stimulation to target memory areas in people with schizophrenia or related conditions. It aims to see if this can help improve symptoms.
This study uses brain scans to look at how a specific brain area works in schizophrenia. If you qualify, it may help researchers better understand the brain changes linked to symptoms.
This study uses a special MRI technique to measure brain structure differences in people with schizophrenia, including those who also have nicotine dependence. Your participation could help researchers understand more about the condition.
This study uses a special brain scan (functional MRI) to look at how schizophrenia affects thinking and memory. It may help researchers understand why some people with schizophrenia have trouble with concentration, planning, or remembering things.
This study tests a brain-training technique called gamma neurofeedback that aims to help people with schizophrenia improve their working memory (the ability to hold and use information briefly). Participants receive real-time feedback while doing memory exercises to train their brain activity patterns.
