Common questions

Are these trials free to join?

Study-related care in a clinical trial is usually provided at no cost to participants, and some trials reimburse travel. Costs vary by study - the trial team will explain what is and is not covered. Confirm this directly with them.

How do I know if I am eligible for Deep Brain Stimulation trials?

Each trial lists inclusion and exclusion criteria. The screener above checks stated age and sex only. The full eligibility (your medical history, current medications, test results) is assessed by the study team. Open any trial to read its criteria, then contact the site.
