During the first week of the fall semester, we had the opportunity to host our Rebel Ready Ceremony, celebrating our G1 class as they begin their journey toward becoming physical therapists and honoring the hard work that brought them here! 💪🩺🧠❤️‍🔥

A huge thank you to PRN for their generous donation of PT kits to our G1 students! These hands-on tools will support their education throughout PT school as they develop foundational examination and treatment skills and build confidence in clinical practice.

We are so grateful to PRN for investing in our students and helping our G1s start their journey Rebel Ready!

We are currently looking for unimpaired participants to act as controls in our research project examining sensation in amputees. We are matching our controls based on age (+/- 1 year) and s*x. If you or someone you know is within 1 year old of the participants listed below, we would greatly appreciate their participation!
Male, 40
Male, 49
Male, 51
Male, 64

The research will consist of 1-2 sessions, lasting no more than 2 hours each, during which we will conduct a simple, painless test of sensation. They will be rewarded with a $25 Amazon gift card for each session they complete. If you or someone you know would like to participate, please email Alex Chavez, SPT ([email protected]) or our study coordinator, Jubayer Hossain ([email protected]), to be scheduled.
