This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Summary

This study looks at whether brain scans can detect when a person is about to make a mistake during a typing task, up to one second in advance. Researchers will use MRI and MEG to record brain activity in 40 healthy right-handed adults aged 18 to 35. The goal is to understand how the brain prepares for errors and whether a warning signal could someday prevent them.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to real-time warning systems that help people avoid mistakes during skilled tasks like typing or surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy volunteers, not patients. It only observes brain activity and does not test any treatment or intervention.
