Dr. Limberg’s Research Projects
The Nutrition and Exercise Physiology Department is recruiting healthy adults of all sizes who are non-nicotine users and between the ages of 18-45 to participate in our research on cardiovascular function. This project examines how blood flow changes in response to low oxygen (similar to sleep apnea) in individuals of various body mass indexes (BMI). This study has one 30-minute screen visit via Zoom, one 1-hour, in-person screening visit, and one 6-hour research visit at the Clinical Translational Research Unit. Participants will be compensated up to $250 after completion and provided cholesterol, blood sugar, and body composition results.

The Nutrition and Exercise Physiology Department is recruiting healthy women with obesity who are non-nicotine users and between the ages of 18-45 for a research study. This project examines how blood flow changes in response to low oxygen (similar to sleep apnea) in individuals with obesity. This study has one 30-minute screen visit via Zoom and one 5-hour in-person research visit at Gwynn Hall. Participants will be compensated up to $100 after completion and provided blood cholesterol, blood sugar, and body composition results.

The Nutrition and Exercise Physiology Department is recruiting healthy women who are non-nicotine users between the ages of 18-70 for a research study. This project examines how blood flow changes in response to low oxygen (similar to sleep apnea) in women during pre-menopause, perimenopause, and post-menopause. This study has one 60-minute in-person screen visit and three 5-hour research visits at Gwynn Hall. Participants will be compensated up to $250 for their time and effort.

The Nutrition and Exercise Physiology Department is recruiting young men and women between the ages of 18-45 with a body mass index above 30 kg/m² for a research study examining the effect of insulin on brain blood flow. This study has one 30-minute zoom meeting and one 3-hour research visit in NextGen Precision Health. Participants will be compensated up to $100 for their time and effort.
