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: Obesity
Investigator: Joshua Cook, MD, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are conducting a research study on the effect of high insulin levels on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people at risk for type 2 diabetes. We are seeking adult volunteers, ages 18-65, who have obesity with a body mass index of 30-45, and have been diagnosed with, or are at risk for, prediabetes and metabolic…
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Daphna Shohamy, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are researchers at Columbia studying the learning and decision making. We are looking for participants over the age of 18, who have been prescribed Trizepatide for weight loss. Participants will be asked to complete an MRI scan and play computer games. Participants earn $25 per hour. Help us understand how the GLP-1 agonists affect brain and cognition!
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Faris Zuraikat, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to assess energy balance during two different diet periods.
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Rudolph Leibel, MD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The Physiology of the Weight Reduced State (POWERS) is a national research study designed to discover and learn what happens to the human body after weight loss and to learn why some people regain their lost weight. Understanding why this happens could help health professionals improve strategies for successful weight loss maintenance after weight loss.…
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Judith Korner, MD
Status: Currently Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if genetic variations are associated with the amount of weight loss with diet and while taking an FDA-approved medication for weight loss. The participation lasts ten months and includes six in-person visits at CUIMC with blood sampling and questionnaires, virtual nutritional counseling, and taking an oral weight…
Condition: Psychiatric Disorders / Depression
Investigator: Sarah Herzog, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are conducting a study on depression and suicide risk, and participants can earn up to $300 for taking part. Suicide rates in the U.S. are rising, and new treatments are urgently needed. This study focuses on the brain chemical glutamate, which may play an important role in mood and mental health. We will compare glutamate levels at rest and during…
Condition: Obesity
Investigator: Joshua Cook, MD, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are conducting a research study on how insulin controls blood sugar in both healthy people and those at risk of type 2 diabetes. We are seeking adult volunteers, aged 18-65, who have body mass indices either in the lean range (18-25 kg/m2) or in the obesity range (30-45 kg/m2) but who do not have prediabetes or diabetes. Participants will undergo a…
Condition: Psychiatric Disorders / Depression
Investigator: Randy Auerbach, PhD
Status: Currently Recruiting
We are recruiting depressed adolescents ages 13-18 years. As a participant in our study, we will: (1) interview your child about current and past thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, (2) teach your child mindfulness strategies, (3) collect brain activity data with MRI (non-invasive) while your child practices mindfulness, and (4) send short surveys to your…
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…
Condition: Obesity
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…
Condition: Psychiatric Disorders / Depression
Investigator: Marcella Walker, MD
Status: Currently Recruiting
Depression and some antidepressants may be associated with an increased risk of breaking a bone. It is not clear why this could be the case. It is possible that depression and/or certain medications used for the treatment of depression cause bone loss, increase the risk of falls, are associated with lower physical activity, or effects on muscle function.…
