Current Opportunities

By volunteering in the latest musculoskeletal research you are contributing to our understanding of how injuries, contact and non-contact, and premature ageing occurs in the Worlds population. Jo Abbott has many research studies planned (see below) occurring in various locations throughout the World.  If you would like to volunteer, please click on the study you are most interested in and see if you fit the volunteer criteria.

Meet other curious minds, learn about the subject matter and have fun while doing it!  Please only commit to volunteering if you have every intention of committing to the specific programme detailed in the research plan.
