Dear list,


Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA is currently conducting a study on a powered prosthesis for transfemoral amputees. We are seeking K3-K4 unilateral, transfemoral amputees to stand, sit, walk on level ground, stairs and ramps while the powered prosthesis is attached to their current prosthetic socket. Each visit to the lab lasts between 2 and 6 hours. Volunteer subjects are compensated at a rate of $20/hour.

If you have a patient who may be interested in participating, please feel free to pass along the attached flyer or have them contact me directly at the information listed below or you may contact the Principal Investigator Dr. Aaron Young at the number 404-385-5306, or by email at <Email Address Redacted>



Thank you so much for your efforts in helping our field advance the technology we provide to our patients.
