With a $388,894 grant from the federal agency, Drs. Don Morgan and Sandy Stevens will recruit, test and follow up with clients suitable for walking in MTSU's underwater treadmill laboratory beginning in fall 2014. Thirty participants, some of whom will be part of a control group, will help the scientists determine the impact of underwater treadmill training on partially paralyzed individuals' mobility, health and quality of life.
