Healthy volunteers (ages 18-40) needed for muscle blood flow research study.

“Exploring microcirculatory control in humans”

The University of North Texas Health Science Center and the Human Vascular Physiology Laboratory are currently recruiting volunteers (ages 18-40) to examine if small passageways located on the surface of blood vessels contribute to blood vessel dilation in skeletal muscle of humans. We are recruiting men and women to take part in this research study.

You must be:

• 18-40 years old

Study Requirements:

• Visit Human Vascular Physiology Laboratory at UNTHSC for testing on 2 separate days; the first will be 1-2 hours, the second will be approximately 5 hours, for a total study time commitment of ~7 hours.

• Participation in this study is voluntary, and if you are a student or employee of UNTHSC your participation (or non-participation) in this study will in no way affect your academic standing or employment.
