Healthy volunteers for brain and nervous system research
This study enrolls healthy adults to take part in future research on the brain and nervous system at the National Institutes of Health. By joining, you help scientists learn more about how the brain works and how to treat neurological conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must be willing to join and follow the study procedures.
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form.
- You must be fluent in English or another language that has a validated mental status test.
- You must not have major neurological or psychiatric conditions, substance use, or certain health problems.
- You must not be pregnant or have devices that make MRI unsafe.

This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
This study uses brain scans to learn how different parts of the brain connect and communicate in healthy people. If you join, you will help researchers better understand normal brain function.
This study is building an online registry where adults can share information to help researchers find people for future brain research. Joining may help future studies get the people they need.
This study recruits healthy adults to help researchers run mental health and brain-related experiments. It may help future studies by improving how they measure brain function and behavior.
This study looks at how immune-related brain or spinal cord illness shows up using exams, MRI scans, and sometimes a spinal fluid test (lumbar puncture), plus collected blood and other samples. It may help researchers better understand these conditions and improve future diagnosis or treatments.
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure natural brain chemicals. It helps researchers understand how the brain works in healthy people, which may inform future treatments.
