A Feasibility Study of Transcranial Electric Stimulation Therapy (TEST) for Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD)
Dr. Regenold and his team at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are leading a study to explore an investigational new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique to see if it can safely support people experiencing symptoms of depression.
An Investigation of the Antidepressant Effects of (2R,6R)-HNK, an Enhancer of Synaptic Glutamate Release, in Treatment-Resistant Depression
Researchers at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) are studying an investigational drug, HNK, to see if it is effective in treating major depression. If you're 18–70 years old and have major depressive disorder (MDD), you may qualify for this 12- to 14-week inpatient research study.
Role of GABAergic Transmission in Auditory Processing in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Researchers are studying the brain's response to language and sound. This study uses a repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), an investigational form of brain stimulation, to measure how different parts of the brain communicate in teens with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Findings from this study may aid in the development of possible future treatments.

Phenotype/Genotype Correlations in Movement Disorders
Do you have Parkinson's disease? Doctors at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) are conducting a research study on people with Movement Disorders. They are currently recruiting participants with Parkinson's disease. The purpose is to learn more about the disease and identify genetic changes and other indicators of the condition that may allow earlier diagnosis.There is no cost for study-related tests or procedures. Travel assistance may be provided.
Surgery as a Treatment for Medically Intractable Epilepsy
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center is looking for individuals with severe epilepsy or individuals who have experienced persistent seizure activity that cannot be controlled with medication, to participate in this research study. The goal of this research study is to provide surgical treatment to control these types of seizures. Participation requires an inpatient stay of up to 4 weeks, plus 3 outpatient visits within 2 years after surgery.
