Students only

Study on stress, coping

Are you a first-year student at ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ��? Interested in a research study on stress and coping in CU students?

The Research on Affective Disorders and Development Lab is conducting research on stress coping in first year CU students. We want to understand what helps CU students cope with stress during major transitions, including the transition to college and across semesters.

The study includes a few different parts that happen over the three-semester study period:

There are two in-person research sessions, each of which takes about four–six hours. During these sessions, you will play some computer games while we monitor physical functioning (for example, your heart rate). You will also complete a set of interviews and surveys that ask about stress, behavior, mood and health.
There are three 21-day periods in which we will send you a daily “micro survey” (less than five minutes to answer) asking about your behavior and mood using an app.
There are two one-hour online surveys that we will send to your email.

The study takes place over the course of three semesters, and you will be compensated for your participation (maximum of $446–$470 for completing all parts of the study).

If you want to learn more, contact the RADD lab at raddlab@colorado.edu or fill out our initial eligibility screening.

Part-time jobs

Work in Student Affairs

Working on campus is a great way for students to gain professional experience and discover new passions. Through your student job, you may learn that you enjoy working one-on-one with others or that your natural strengths work well for certain roles (like event planning or mentorship). Whatever department you work in, your student job can help you explore career paths, build your resume and shape your future. Explore jobs on Handshake.

Work in Campus Dining Services

Campus Dining Services offers students the chance to learn and build skills for success at CU and beyond. Our students work in a diverse, inclusive and fun space, and there are jobs that work with your schedule. There are also personal and professional development opportunities to develop skills like teamwork, communication, leadership and more.

Flexible hours and convenient locations
Competitive pay rates (starting at $16/hour)

Studies for adults

Study on music listening in young adults

Do you love listening to music? Are you curious about what music others are listening to? The Brain Music Lab at ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ�� is currently recruiting participants for a research study investigating music listening, sharing and enjoyment behaviors in young adults (IRB # 24-0658).

Participating involves completing an online survey, followed by one visit to the Brain Music Lab (Roser ATLAS building) on ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ�� Main Campus where you will listen to music, answer questions on a computer and have a short interview about your experience.

The total expected time commitment is two hours. Individuals who complete the study will be compensated with a $20 Amazon gift certificate and be entered in a drawing for an additional $50 Amazon gift certificate.

To participate, you must be between the ages of 18–25 and have normal or corrected-to-normal hearing.

Interested in participating or have any questions? Please email Sophia Mehdizadeh (some4995@colorado.edu) or complete this form.

Astronaut training research

Advancing and Validating Galvanic Disorientation Simulation Trainer: In this experiment, you will wear a galvanic vestibular stimulation headset. This system senses how you are tilted and stimulates your vestibular system with small amounts of electrical current through electrodes based behind your ears, near your forehand and back of your head. The system is intended to make you feel like an astronaut returning from spaceflight. During the experiment, you will perform tasks like reporting how you feel you are tilted, standing balance, walking or using a joystick to keep yourself upright in a chair.

You will be paid for the time you spend participating in this study.

If you have questions, would like additional information or are interested in participating, please email cu.gvspost@gmail.com. The principal investigator for this study is Torin Clark. You must be 18–65 years old to participate.

Study on learning, decision-making

The Neuromechanics Lab at ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ�� is looking for volunteers to take part in a research study that investigates the role of how individuals navigate a dynamic and ambiguous decision-making task.

To take part you must:

Be English-speaking
Be between 18–36 years old
Have normal vision or wear glasses/contacts that make your vision normal
Have no neurological or other problems that affect your movement control
Complete the pre-screen survey

This study is expected to last at most two hours. Participants will receive a digital Amazon gift card as compensation, worth between $15 and $25. All procedures take place in the campus laboratory (Engineering Center, ECSL 1B21).

For more information, please contact colin.korbisch@colorado.edu.

Multiple sclerosis clinical trial

Researchers from the Neurophysiology of Movement Laboratory at ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ�� are conducting a study to investigate if electrical stimulation applied to the legs can reduce fatigue and improve walking in persons with multiple sclerosis.

You may be eligible to participate if you:

Are between18–65 years of age
Have clinically confirmed diagnosis of MS
Are able to walk but have some difficulty walking
Experience some fatigue during activities of daily living

If you are interested, please contact Mélanie Henry by email at melanie.henry@colorado.edu and reference the MS clinical trial.

Cardiovascular research

The Integrative Physiology of Aging Laboratory is recruiting for four studies:

Physician-monitored exercise stress test
Blood pressure screening
Bone mineral density test
Monetary compensation for time

If interested, email IMSTstudy@colorado.edu or call 303-492-2485. Learn more.

Novel breathing exercise, ages 18-plus

Researchers are looking for volunteers to study the potential health effects of a new type of breathing exercise (a time efficient exercise) delivered via a smartphone app on blood pressure and vascular function.

Potential healthy aging effects of fisetin

A biological hallmark of aging is “cellular senescence”, which is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction. Compounds called “senolytics” that decrease the number or amount of senescent cells may be effective for improving age-related cardiovascular dysfunction and possibly brain health.

The Integrative Physiology of Aging Lab at ��Ҵ�ý�ƽ�� is trying to determine whether intermittent oral supplementation with a natural compound with senolytic properties called fisetin (found in strawberries, onions and cucumbers and available as dietary supplement) will improve blood vessel function, reduce artery stiffness, and improve cognitive function (a measure of brain health) in adults ages 65-plus.

Benefits for volunteers include: cardiovascular health assessment, cognitive function tests, blood tests and compensation for time.

For more information, please email fisetinstudy@colorado.edu, or call 303-735-6410. Learn more.

Potential healthy aging effects of MitoQ

Researchers are looking for volunteers to study the potential healthy aging effects of MitoQ, an antioxidant that is attracted to the mitochondria of cells, supplementation on physiological function.

Requirements:

Ages 60-plus
Willing to undergo a three-month period taking MitoQ or placebo pills

Benefits include:

Detailed blood panel (cholesterol, glucose, etc.)
Monetary compensation for time

If interested: call 303-735-6410 or email mitoqstudy@colorado.edu. Learn more.

Heat therapy, blood pressure, vascular function

Researchers are seeking volunteers to participate in a clinical research study. We are looking for adults, ages 40-plus who are willing to participate in water immersion sessions approximately three times per week for 12 weeks and have above normal blood pressure (a top number of 115 or higher; if you are unsure of your blood pressure, please still contact us for screening).

You will complete three in-person research visits, each including an interview about life experiences, a set of computer games, and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan.
You will select and use a CBD product for up to six weeks.

The study takes place over the course of six to eight weeks, and you will be compensated for your participation (maximum of $863–$1,038 for completing all parts of the study).

If you want to learn more, contact the RADD Lab at raddlab@colorado.edu or 303-735-8306, or fill out the initial eligibility screening.
