Do you have a history of falls? Are you interested in learning about your risk of falling?
Falls among seniors is a major health care issue. Approximately 1 in 3 older adults experience one or more falls per year. Although falls are commonly thought to be a consequence of physical problems, such as poor balance, research now suggests that brain function also plays a role in one’s risk of falling. University of BC researchers are inviting senior volunteers aged 70 to 80 years old to participate in a research study that aims to examine the effect of brain function on falls. To be eligible for this study, individuals must be: 1) Right Handed 2) Aged 70-80 years old 3) Willing to participate in one MRI scan For more information, please contact Michelle Munkacsy (Research Assistant) at 604-875-4111 Ext. 69056
