Brain stimulation for memory in schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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 tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (tDCS) to improve thinking and memory problems in people with early schizophrenia. If you qualify, you would receive the study treatment while continuing stable schizophrenia care.
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 tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can improve brain connections in people with schizophrenia. It involves two types of MRI scans and several TMS sessions to see if it can help with thinking and symptoms.
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical brain stimulation technique called tACS can improve working memory in people with schizophrenia. It involves 10 daily sessions and may help with daily functioning.
This study tests a brain stimulation treatment (neuromodulation) to improve brain connectivity in people with schizophrenia. It aims to see if this approach can help with symptoms and cognitive function.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (rTMS) can improve thinking and memory in people with psychosis. It involves MRI scans and several study visits at McLean Hospital.
