Volunteers Needed for Ultrasound Research Study
June 03, 2026
This study is currently enrolling volunteers ages 18 to 35 and 55 and over and will use ultrasound to understand how our muscles change with aging.
A single study visit (approximately two hours) will include:
- ultrasounds of the leg muscles

- breathing activities
- walking and balance tests
- activity questionnaire
These activities are for research purposes only.
You will be compensated for your participation.
