1. A Long Term Study of Molecular and Structural Imaging in Atypical Alzheimer's Disease

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to learn more about amyloid and tau burden in the brain of patients with Atypical Alzheimer's Disease and how that burden may change over a two-year period.

2. A Study to Evaluate Pluripotent Stem Cell Models for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Patients

   Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to perform RNA sequencing on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC).  By comparing the gene expression of motor neurons derived from iPSC cells of phenotypically discordant Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) sibling pairs and individual cases of SMA, we hope to identify potential protective gene modifiers of SMA.   Identifying protective gene modifiers will increase our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of SMA.

3. A Study of Molecular Anatomic Imaging Analysis of Tau, the Primary Pathological Protein in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to learn more about the distribution of the pathological protein tau in the living brains of patients with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).

4. A Study to Evaluate Awake vs. Asleep Spine Surgery

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   Patients undergoing spine lumbar surgery will be asked to perform short exams/questionnaires aimed at determining cognitive function, quality of life, health outcomes twice post surgery with a baseline performance prior to surgery.

5. A Study to Develop and Assess the Role of Artificial Intelligence in MR Fingerprinting of the Brain

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) system than can process MR images acquired using conventional acquisition schemes (spin echo, gradient echo, etc) and contrasts (T1, T2, T2*, PD) to identify the MR fingerprint of the tissue under interrogation.

6. A Study to Evaluate Droperidol Use in the Emergency Department and the Effect on QTc

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to study the length of the QTc interval in patients receiving the standard of care dose of intravenous droperidol for headache or migraine, nausea, pain, and indications other than agitation over 30 minutes.

7. A Study to Assess Neuroinflammation in Epileptic Tissue Immediately Prior to Surgical Resection Using Intraoperative Brain Microdialysis

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to measure the space and time characteristics of inflammatory mediator release in response to induced epileptiform activity in ASD-resistant patients.

8. A Study to Assess Medtronic Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Therapy for Epilepsy Post-Approval (EPAS)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this post-approval study is to further evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of Medtronic DBS therapy for epilepsy on seizure reduction in newly implanted participants through 3 years of follow-up in different geographic populations.

9. A Study to Evaluate MN-166 (Ibudilast) for 12 Months Followed by an Open-label Extension for 6 Months in Patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of MN-166 given to ALS participants for 12 months followed by a 6-month open-label extension phase.

10. A Study to Establish a Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Cohort using the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI)

    Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

    The Parkinson Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) is a study to assess progression of clinical features, digital outcomes, and imaging, biologic and genetic markers of Parkinson’s disease (PD) progression in study participants with manifest PD, prodromal PD, and healthy controls. The overall goal of PPMI is to identify markers of disease progression for use in clinical trials of therapies to reduce progression of PD disability.
