- Description
- Information about research into Computational Cognitive Neuroimaging in the School of Psychology at the University of Birmingham. The goal of the Computational Cognitive Neuroimaging Group is to better understand the neural systems that allow us to acquire, represent and retrieve knowledge about our multisensory environment.
- Description
- ASTRAL is a multicentre, randomized, unblinded clinical trial, comparing revascularisation in addition to medical therapy versus medical therapy alone in patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD). The aim of ASTRAL is to assess whether renal arterial revascularisation with balloon angioplasty and/or endovascular stenting can safely prevent progressive renal failure among patients with ARVD. ASTRAL closed to recruitment in October 2007 having recruited 806 patients, and is now in long term follow up until 2017. The trial is managed by the BCTU at the University of Birmingham.

- PD GEN is a DNA databank for patients with Parkinson's, from the large randomised controlled trials PD MED, PD SURG, PD REHAB & PD COMM.
- Description
- PD MED is a large randomised clinical trial investigating the clinical and cost effectiveness of the different classes of drugs in the treatment of patients with Parkinson's disease.
- Description
- The PD REHAB study is a multi centre clinical trial ran by Birmingham Clinical Trials Unit and sponsored by the University of Birmingham. It's an investigation into the clinical and cost-effectiveness of physiotherapy and occupational therapy in patients with Parkinson's.
- Description
- The PD SURG study is a multi centre clinical trial ran by Birmingham Clinical Trials Unit and sponsored by the University of Birmingham. It's an investigation into the clinical and cost-effectiveness of deep brain stimulation (neurosurgery) in patients with Parkinson's.
