Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation

This study looks at whether adjusting deep brain stimulation (DBS) can improve movement, speech, and swallowing in people already implanted with DBS for conditions like tremor, stroke, or traumatic brain injury. Researchers will test hand dexterity, grip strength, facial movement…

This study is testing a device called ViBandz, which uses small vibrating motors strapped to the body to provide vibration therapy. Researchers want to see if it is easy and comfortable for children with neurological conditions to use at home. The study will involve 30 children a…

This natural history study is collecting information from up to 4,000 people with movement disorders (like Parkinson's disease or tremor) and their family members. Participants undergo exams, blood tests, and imaging, but receive no new treatments. The goal is to gather data that…

This study aims to understand the link between genes and symptoms in people with inherited movement disorders. Researchers will study up to 2,500 participants, including patients and their family members, to identify new disease-causing genes and improve diagnosis. The goal is to…

This study aims to find the genetic causes of movement disorders and dementias by analyzing DNA from up to 12,000 participants, including patients and their family members. Researchers will collect blood or saliva samples and look for gene mutations linked to these conditions. Th…

This study aims to collect information and bone samples from up to 1,000 people with bone or mineral disorders, such as tumor-induced osteomalacia or familial tumoral calcinosis. Participants receive standard medical evaluations and may provide bone tissue from surgery or a biops…

This study follows 600 people with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and related conditions over 1 to 10 years. Researchers collect data from routine clinical exams, brain imaging, movement analysis, and blood tests. They use statistical tools and artif…

This study is gathering medical information and samples from up to 5,000 people with neurosurgical conditions like brain tumors, epilepsy, and Parkinson's disease. Participants receive standard care while their data is collected for future research. No new treatments are being te…

This study looks at children in Vietnam who have movement disorders—like tremors, jerks, or coordination problems—with no known cause. Researchers will collect medical information and blood samples to search for genetic changes that might explain these conditions. The goal is to …

This study explores whether a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) can help people with motor disorders, such as spinal cord injury or stroke, control assistive devices using their thoughts. Researchers will record brain signals with EEG and use machine learning to interpr…

This study is creating a shared database of children who have received deep brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders like dystonia, epilepsy, or Tourette syndrome. By pooling data from multiple hospitals, researchers hope to answer key questions about who benefits most and …

This study follows 1500 people with rare genetic brain disorders to learn how these diseases progress. Researchers measure thinking, movement, and daily living skills over time, and also look at brain scans and body fluids. The goal is to better understand the diseases and how tr…

This study aims to translate the Hypertonia Assessment Tool (HAT) into Turkish and check if it works correctly. The HAT helps doctors identify different types of increased muscle tone in children with motor disorders. Researchers will test the tool on 70 children under 18 who hav…

This study collects medical information and biological samples (like blood or tissue) from up to 12,000 people with leukodystrophies—rare disorders that damage the brain's white matter. Researchers will use this data to find new genetic causes, develop biomarkers for future trial…
