This research study uses a computer learning task to understand how the brain's decision-making areas work in people with OCD. It may help improve treatments by showing how your orbitofrontal cortex (a part of the brain involved in learning and choices) responds.
This study looks at brain signals to understand why OCD treatments may not work for some people. If you have OCD and are about to start OCD therapy, you may be invited to take part.
This study looks at how your interpretation of unclear situations may influence how well OCD treatment works. You’ll likely complete a computer task to understand thinking patterns and response to the main OCD study protocol.
This study uses MRI scans to understand how the brain processes sensory feelings in people with OCD. You may be able to join if you have moderate to severe OCD and certain sensory experiences, like feelings of things being "just right."
This study looks at genes, blood/brain proteins, and gut microbes in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It may help researchers understand what drives OCD and how treatments could be better tailored in the future.
This trial looks for “biomarkers” (measurable signs in behavior or brain patterns) in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) while doing specific tasks. It may help researchers understand what makes OCD change over time and how treatments could be guided.
