Subjects needed for study investigating effects of electrical stimulation on walking, balance

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
