Are you interested in getting your brain scanned? Researchers in Dr. John Kramer’s lab are recruiting participants (ages 19-45) not diagnosed with chronic pain, spinal cord injury, or other major health conditions for an Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/Magnetic resonance spectroscopy Read More…
This study looks at a device that uses light to determine the fitness of muscles in the body, specifically the researchers want to look at the pelvic floor muscles that help with bladder control. This study will measure the difference Read More…
This study is looking at a device that uses light to determine how the bladder muscle uses oxygen, specifically the researchers want to look at the relationship between bladder pressure that is recorded during bladder function studies (urodynamics) and the Read More…
Researchers in Dr. Ben Mortenson’s lab are interested in the transportation and cycle lane experiences of cyclists or wheeled mobility device users (e.g. users of manual or power wheelchairs, wheeled mobility scooters). Cycling is gaining prominence as a sustainable method Read More…
The Joy-Active Project focusses on promoting and implementing physical activity guidelines for adults with disabilities. The study purposes are to look at participation within a community-based exercise program for adults with disabilities and to better understand the experiences and perceptions Read More…
This study aims to determine if a new method for exercising forearm muscle that involves several rounds of low-intensity (LI) exercise while applying blood flow restriction (BFR) using a tourniquet over the arm, is a more effective methodology for increasing Read More…
Since adaptive cardiovascular equipment is typically not available, ICORD researchers have created a relatively inexpensive rowing machine (aROW) that can be set up in a home or local gym. They want to know what setting is the best place for Read More…
Effects of sex on belt fit in relation to skeletal geometry The goal of this study is to determine if seatbelts fit males and females differently. In order to do this, it is important to determine seatbelt location relative to Read More…
Evaluation of a peer-led eHealth wheelchair skills training program: TEAM Wheels This research study is being conducted to evaluate the effect of a peer-led eHealth manual wheelchair (MWC) training program (called “TEAM Wheels”) among individuals transitioning to MWC use. The Read More…
Characterizing retinal vascular changes of autonomic dysreflexia in traumatic spinal cord injury to inform early automated detection via deep learning Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major secondary complication of spinal cord injury (SCI). Therefore, prevention and early diagnosis of CVD Read More…
