RECRUITING

Immune Cells During Disuse and Recovery

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is an interventional study enrolling healthy individuals aged 18-35 and 60-85 to understand the recovery of muscle health following a period of inactivity. The enrollment goal is 45 participants. The study will occur over the course of 1-2 months where participants will undergo testing before and after a 2-week limb immobilization period.
