The purpose of this study is to evaluate participation in an 8-week community-based, online program for adults that will help them make small changes to their diet, physical activity, and other behaviors to help promote their health or manage their weight. We are interested in who will participate, how much participants will use the program, how many participants are interested in preventing weight gain or losing weight, and how the program will affect eating, physical activity, and stress. This program is based on previous research on approaches the researchers have studied to help people make small changes to their behavior and is being offered in response to an identified need to offer health promotion resources during the COVID-19 pandemic
Tripping while walking is very common after a stroke. The purpose of this study is to determine when a self-induced trip will occur.
People who suffer ACL injuries are at an increased risk for knee osteoarthritis, which can lead to chronic pain and disability. In this study, we want to learn if adding vibration to rehabilitation following ACL reconstruction surgery can improve how your joints move while walking. We also want to learn if this vibration can improve how your muscles work and your quality of life compared to rehabilitation alone. *This study is a collaboration with the UNC Sports Medicine Institute*
