Walking study participants

The kinesiology department is seeking individuals with peripheral arterial disease to participate in a walking exercise study directed by Kevin McCully, kinesiology professor.

This study is especially interested in people who have trouble walking, though problems walking are not a ­necessary requirement. It will use a noninvasive device to measure oxygen levels in muscle to evaluate the success of the program and improve the effectiveness of the walking training.

For more information on this study or to volunteer, call or email Jared Brizendine at 706-542-3258 or jtbriz@uga.edu.
