Get a Free A1C Test to Detect Prediabetes

Researchers in the Department of Human Movement Sciences are conducting a study aimed at earlier detection of prediabetes, and are looking for volunteers. To participate, you must be 18-65 years old and pass a simple health-screening questionnaire that you will complete in a department lab at the Student Recreation Center.

If approved to be in the study, you will receive a free A1C test on your second visit, which is a common finger stick blood test to screen for diabetes and prediabetes, and undergo some simple and quick testing with monofilaments and other painless screening tools. Your participation will determine the most effective methods of detection of prediabetes and early health problems, giving more time for individuals to respond with healthier life choices.
