Volunteers Needed For Third Year Project Experiments
The aim of this research is to analyse the pressure applied by the human foot during normal walking and how this varies in individuals who may have suffered a foot injury in the past. If you choose to participate you will be asked to walk several times along a pre-determined course within the School of Engineering’s Gait Laboratory floor whilst fitted with TekScan F-Scan equipment, that allows the pressure exerted by each foot as you walk to be measured. All equipment is non-invasive, poses no notable risk to participants and I have received full training in its use. Further information about the equipment can be found here: http://www.tekscan.com/medical/system-fscan1.html.
Experiments should last no more than 30 minutes. Unfortunately due to the nature of the project, financial reimbursement for time cannot be provided.
If anybody is interested, or you have any further questions, could you please contact myself at h.alexander@warwick.ac.uk as soon as possible.
