Clinical Trials Directory
The COMET Study includes up to 4 visits to the study center. Each visit lasts about 2 to 3 hours. During the visits, children will wear special equipment for a brain test called an EEG and do fun, play-based activities. Parents or caregivers may be asked to answer questions or do interviews at home. Families will get $50 for each visit.
We are doing this study to learn more about Alzheimer's disease and other illnesses of aging (e.g., dementia, mild cognitive impairment [MCI], or other cognition disorders).
We are doing this study to learn more about sleep and body rhythms in children with ADHD. We will use home-based measures, parent reports, and an evening test to see how sleep affects mental health and thinking skills. Dr. Jessica Lunsford-Avery from the Department of Psychiatry is leading this study.
We are doing this study to collect data, liquid biopsies (blood and urine), and cancer specimens from women with primary epithelial ovarian, peritoneal, or tubal cancer. We are using this information and these samples to create a biobank that might identify future therapeutic targets and help develop new therapies for these types of cancer.
We are doing this study to learn more about how repeated head impacts and concussions from playing sports can impact the health of Black men after middle age (age 50 and above). We want to find out how these injuries might affect things like lifestyle, mood, brain structure, socioeconomic status, and blood markers of brain disease. We hope this study can help reduce disparities in outcomes and improve the detection and diagnosis of brain health.
We created this healthy volunteer registry for people who would like to participate in brain imaging research studies. These studies use structural and functional MRI data to study areas of the brain associated with movement, memory, attention, and perception.
In this study, emergency room doctors and advanced practice providers will take part in special training to learn how to use heart and lung ultrasound. The training includes lessons and hands on practice using simulations. The training program is created together with hospital leaders and ultrasound experts. After the training, participants will use ultrasound during normal patient care to check the hearts and lungs of patients who have acute heart failure, following standard care guidelines.
We are doing this study to learn more about the needs and challenges of Black parents and caregivers who are taking care of children who have special healthcare needs. We want to be able to provide better support for these families in the future.
