Exoskeleton Study at UQ - EOI
With aging comes changes in the way we perform daily movements, such as walking and balance. This is, in part, caused by changes in the strength and composition of our muscles and tendons. In this study, we want to investigate how movement changes with aging and whether a simple device, called an "exoskeleton", can improve muscle function to assist with walking and balance.  

We are recruiting adults over 65 years of age. To be eligible you must be able to participate in 15 minutes of low intensity exercise (i.e. walking) without an ambulatory assistive device. Participants must also be comfortable with the placement of small sensors on their legs, to measure movement patterns during walking and balance tasks.

You will be reimbursed for your time with a $40 gift voucher and free parking at UQ is provided. If you are interested in participating, please fill out the form below or alternatively you can contact us via the details below:
