Condition: Rehabilitation / Cerebral Palsy
Investigator: Jason Carmel, MD, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The goal of this research is to combine non-invasive brain and sensory nerve stimulation to investigate their influence on hand function. Many adults with hemiplegic CP no longer actively receive therapies but have further hand goals they want to achieve. The information we learn from this study may help us learn how to design future interventions to help…
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Ilene Fennoy, MD
Status: Currently Recruiting
Bariatric surgery and a once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 medicine both cause major weight loss in teens, but their effects on mouth and gut bacteria and on damaged blood fats tied to metabolism are still unknown. This study will collect saliva, stool, and routine blood samples from adolescents before treatment and six months later to see how these…

Condition: Rehabilitation
Investigator: Sunil Agrawal, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
Standing postural control, or the ability to maintain an upright posture, is needed for most daily activities. People with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) may find it challenging to maintain postural control and therefore, have difficulty moving between positions, such as lying down or sitting up, or reaching for objects that are beyond an arm's distance…
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Joshua Cook, MD, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are recruiting volunteers, aged 18-70, for a research study on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people with or at risk for type 2 diabetes because their bodies are resistant to the actions of the blood sugar-lowering hormone, insulin. To do this, we seek to temporarily induce or accentuate insulin resistance in 14…

Investigator: Joshua Cook, MD, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are seeking adult volunteers with body mass index in the obesity range (30-45 kg/m2) to come in for a single study visit where they answer some health questions and have a small volume of blood drawn (25 cc/1.7 tbsp). We will measure levels of the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin as well as glucose (sugar), certain fats, and other molecules related…

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrine disorders in women ofreproductive age, affecting about 7% of this population when using the strictest diagnostic criteria and frequently presents in adolescence and young adulthood. Diagnostic features of PCOS includehyperandrogenism and ovulatory dysfunction. Additionally, both obese and…
Condition: Endocrine & Metabolic Disease / Cushing's Disease
Investigator: Pamela Freda, MD
Status: Closed
This study is for individuals who have Cushings disease and want to join voluntarily in this study to find out if a study drug called osilodrostat (LCI699) is safe and has beneficial effects in people who have Cushings disease. Cushings disease is a rare but debilitating disease. Cushings disease is caused by a benign tumor of the pituitary gland. The tumor…
