Researchers in the Neurophysiology of Movement Lab on Main Campus are conducting a study to evaluate the influence of light electrical stimulation on walking and balance capabilities in healthy adults. 

Subject requirements:

• 65–85 years of age
• Free from neurological impairments
• No recent lower body injuries 
• Ability to walk for six minutes unaided

The study consists of two visits to CU Boulder Main Campus on separate days (approximately 2.5 hours each):

• In each session, we will apply mild electrical stimulation using a TENS device and assess subjects' walking and balance capabilities.
• Compensation: $50 for the two visits

Buff Bus has upgraded its Transit app with improved software designed to provide real-time bus location information based on GPS tracking, rather than predicted route schedules. The new software went live in January.

“It’s important for our riders to know when to expect the bus, and when the buses are running off-schedule,” said Tom Christian, senior operations compliance program manager for Buff Bus operations at CU Boulder. “We are trying to improve the Buff Bus experience, and this upgrade makes it easier for our riders to plan their daily schedules.”

Previously the app relied on regular schedules to predict when a particular bus was supposed to arrive, but if the buses got off schedule due to weather or traffic delays, the app didn’t offer GPS based tracking. Now, with this upgrade, the Transit app is able to feed data real-time from the bus’s GPS unit to determine its real-time location and more accurately predict how long it will take to reach the next stop.

Showcase your talents!

The Diverse Musicians' Alliance (DiMA) at CU Boulder invites performers of music, dance, poetry and other forms of art to participate in "Roots and Branches," an annual show featuring diverse voices and art forms, on March 31 at 7:30 p.m. in the College of Music's Grusin Recital Hall.

Applications to perform are due March 5.

All types of performances are welcome. Performances must be no longer than 10 minutes. We are not able to provide amplification equipment other than a single handheld microphone. The performance hall is intimate and has excellent acoustics. Amplification is rarely needed.

We are looking for diverse acts and are especially interested in personal, unique and thought-provoking performances. The Diverse Performance Concert is a longstanding tradition of the Diverse Musicians' Alliance and has taken place on campus for more than 14 years.

Please apply by March 5. While we want to showcase as many performers as possible, if we receive a large number of applications, the committee will select a program that represents diverse voices and art forms. We will be in touch soon after the deadline.
