Learning new connections in brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether people with an acquired brain injury can learn new connections between symbols and words using a computer-based learning method. The goal is to see if this approach can help with cognitive rehabilitation.

This trial tests a group memory training program for people who have had a brain injury at least 6 months ago and still have memory problems. The training is in Norwegian and aims to help improve memory skills.
This trial tests whether doing cognitive and motor exercises at home using a computer or tablet can help people recover after a severe brain injury. It's designed for adults who still have some thinking and language skills but may have trouble with memory, attention, or movement.
This trial tests an online memory program for people with a recent traumatic brain injury (TBI) to help with thinking and memory. It may be useful if your injury is recent and you can safely do MRI scanning.
This study tests if a gentle, noninvasive nerve stimulation (on the neck) combined with computerized thinking exercises can help people recovering from a traumatic brain injury improve memory and attention. It is for adults currently in inpatient rehab who can use a keyboard and are medically stable.
This study looks at how the brain rewires itself after a stroke that causes aphasia (language problems). It uses brain scans to understand changes in brain networks, which may help improve recovery treatments.
This trial tests a new treatment called Cognitive Network Restoration Therapy that uses deep brain stimulation to help people recover thinking skills after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury. It is for people who are still having problems with daily life more than two years after their injury.
