Do memory drills help veterans remember things?
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests if doing short memory drills can help veterans with brain injuries or PTSD improve their ability to remember to do tasks. You'll practice on a tablet or computer and see if your memory gets better.

This study tests a computer-based memory training program for people with PTSD. It aims to see if this training can help reduce PTSD symptoms by improving how your brain processes memories. The study involves 8 remote sessions over 4 weeks and two MRI scans to look at brain changes.
This study looks at whether a cognitive training program you’ve already completed can keep helping over time, and whether it can be improved with “booster” sessions. It may help older veterans maintain thinking and daily functioning skills after earlier training.
This trial tests an intensive skills-training program to help with thinking and memory problems after a mild-to-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI). It’s designed for veterans who are at least 6 months past the injury and still notice cognitive symptoms that affect daily goals like work or school.
This trial is testing a type of therapy called Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD, along with memory exercises to help enhance the therapy's effects. It is for veterans who have PTSD and want to see if adding memory training can improve their treatment.
This trial tests whether non-invasive brain stimulation can improve thinking and memory in veterans who have both a past mild traumatic brain injury and PTSD. You can do the sessions from home with internet access.
This study tests a computer-based training program to help improve working memory after a moderate or severe head injury. It is designed for people who still have memory problems at least 3 months after their injury.
