Brain Training to Improve Memory in Schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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.

This trial tests a brain-training technique called neurofeedback, which helps you learn to control certain brainwaves. It might improve thinking and daily function for people with schizophrenia who are otherwise stable.
This study looks at whether a treatment that targets brain “rhythms” can improve working memory in people who are in the early stage of schizophrenia. It may help the brain process information more effectively, which can support daily thinking and functioning.
This study looks at how a type of brain training affects thinking skills in people with schizophrenia and healthy adults. It may help improve memory, attention, or problem-solving abilities.
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 trial studies how a structured exercise program may affect brain health in people with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. It may help researchers understand whether exercise can support brain function and overall health in this condition.
