UBC Study is looking for volunteers

Posted by

Hello everyone! Coach Jenna has asked for this information to be passed along to the Telemark community. She has a colleague who is conducting a study on the function of blood vessels. There is a description of the study below. If you are interested, please contact Kate Sansum directly.

The effect of 1 hour of sitting on blood vessel function

“We are conducting a research study to investigate what happens to blood vessel function in the leg after 60 minutes of uninterrupted sitting. We also want to find out if the response is different between males and females, and between children, adolescents and adults. The study involves 1 visit to our Pediatric Exercise Research lab on UBC-O campus (ART-183). Total time commitment is ~ (approximately) 2 hours.

If you (or anyone you know) are healthy, between the ages of 19-29 years or have a child between the ages of 8-12 years, or adolescent aged 13-15 years old and would like more information regarding the study and what is involved please contact Kate Sansum – kate.sansum@ubc.ca. We are asking to collect your email address because we can send you study information. All the emails sent to you will be sent via the UBC webmail services. Due to the fact that future emails will contain personal information about you, including your name and information about your health, please carefully consider whether this email account is secure, whether other people have access to it, or whether you have concerns about the security of any information sent to this account.

All of the information which you provide to us will be kept completely confidential. Providing your email address means that you voluntarily agree and give your consent for the study team to use email to communicate with you.”
