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.
This study combines brain stimulation with physical exercise to see if it can improve thinking skills in people with schizophrenia. You will receive a gentle form of brain stimulation while doing exercise.
This study tests whether adding a mild brain stimulation therapy (called tDCS) to a supervised exercise program can help improve thinking and memory in people with treatment-resistant schizophrenia. The goal is to see if combining these activities works better than exercise alone.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can help improve social thinking and understanding in people with psychosis. Researchers want to see if this treatment can boost how you read social cues and connect with others.
This study tests if a gentle electrical stimulation applied to the head (called tDCS) can improve thinking and memory problems in people with recent schizophrenia. It might help you think more clearly and better manage daily tasks.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial electrical stimulation (TIS) to improve thinking and memory problems in people with schizophrenia. Researchers want to see if this treatment, combined with antipsychotic medications, can help you think more clearly and function better in daily life.
