Hello my new amigos,
If anyone’s already settled at Campbelltown/close by/doesn’t mind travelling, and is used to or doesn’t mind the feeling of DOMS (that feeling after leg day when ya can’t walk), there’s a study that’s being done at the WSU School of Medicine that I’m involved in and we’re looking for subjects. Unfortunately it seems like we’re pretty much out of funds at the moment, but if it’s comes back you’d earn $25/hr + maybe an extra $25 for the pain that we’d be inflicting (otherwise it’ll have to be done for free
). It involves a small electrode being inserted into the side/back of your calf into a nerve, and injection of a bit of saline into the front of your calf to cause the pain (which should reach an unpleasant but bearable amount of pain, similar to DOMS). Overall it should last somewhere less than 3 hours, and shouldn’t cause any lasting damage - I’ve had my nerve jabbed on both legs (despite being very apprehensive about it before) and will be doing it again soon, and so far I’m still fine. If you’d be interested in heading over to the School of Medicine or the campus as a whole and/or you want an experience of whay lab research on human subjects is like, please message me
If you’d only consider doing it if there’s reimbursement ($$), that’s totally fine, bu but please message me anyway, I’ll let you know once there are funds.
