Does anyone know if there will be any clinic trials occurring in 2017? I expect a couple will occur in 2018 but let me know if I've overlooked or missed an upcoming trial for 2017. Thanks.
 
What's the best way to get into these trials? I've contacted a few (including rTMS at University of Arkansas) and never heard back. I generally just contacted the person whose contact was listed on the trial page. Am I going about it the wrong way?

That's a good question. I also contacted a couple of Trial organizers from clinicaltrials.gov and got no response. I was careful about making sure I wasn't in the disqualified set and the trial was still recruiting, but somehow I didn't get any success in getting in touch with anyone.

Glad it's not just me ;). My thoughts are they get so many requests they just don't respond or perhaps there is turnover and the person on the contact list has moved on? Not sure. Interestingly, on the two occasions where I emailed a researcher or someone at the highest level, I received a response. Not so with the clinical trial contacts. I just wonder how people get so lucky to have doctors who recommend them for trials.
