ALR loans ActiGraph GT1M accelerometers to grantees for work on their ALR project. Our equipment is loaned on a first come, first serve basis. It is never guaranteed that we will have equipment available for the time requested. Applicants should budget funds to purchase some or all of the equipment needed and then contact ALR to see if we can supplement the number of units you have. There always is a good chance that we will be able to provide you with the full amount of units required for your study, at which time grantees will be able to rebudget equipment funds to other portions of the grant. But it is better to be prepared and have equipment funds budgeted just in case ALR is unable to provide you with some or all of the units you require.
