WVU researchers are recruiting participants between the ages of 25 and 65 with diabetes who live independently for a study to help guide early intervention strategies to support healthy aging and fall prevention.

Patients are not eligible if they have been diagnosed with a neurological condition. 

Eligible participants should not have experienced prolonged dizziness or a lower extremity injury or surgery within the past six months. 

Each participant will receive a personalized fall risk evaluation by a licensed physical therapist and a $20 Target gift card. 

Sign up to participate.

For questions, contact Kimeran Evans at kwevans@hsc.wvu.edu or 304-293-1732.

Thank you for your time and support in helping us promote fall prevention and healthy aging.
