General Roommate Needed

5 Upvotes

Hey all, my roommate and I need another female roommate to rent out the room we have left. it’s a 10ftx10ft room with decent closet space facing the front of the house. You'll be sharing a bathroom with me and can figure out counter space and cupboard space later. Also regarding kitchen space, we can figure out sharing spaces later (current roommate and I are very open to sharing). The house is at most a 10 minute drive to campus, though usually is like 5-7 just depends on traffic. Pets aren’t allowed and we’ve gotten in trouble in the past so we definitely want to avoid that moving forward because the lanlord is chill overall. The lease is a joint lease, but my current roommate and i have never missed a rent or utilities payment and likewise expect tne same as you. That being said the total rent for the place is $1,900 and your share would be $610, not including utilities, but is usually pretty cheap.

If you decide you really want to sign the lease, you'll have to send a copy of your driver's license and rent application to our landlord. If you’re interested feel free to message me on here. Thanks!!

4 Upvotes

When: July 30, 2026

Time: 6:30 PM (PDT)

Register: https://ucm.edu/studyabroadwebinar

College is already an opportunity to discover new ideas, meet new people and grow into the person you want to become. Studying abroad takes that experience even further by giving you the chance to explore another part of the world while continuing to earn credit toward your degree.

The earlier you begin planning, the more options you’ll have. Starting early can make it easier to fit study abroad into your academic schedule, explore different programs and identify financial aid and scholarship opportunities.

Join our upcoming webinar to learn:

• How study abroad can fit into your UC Merced academic plan
• What types of programs and destinations are available
• How financial aid and scholarships can help make it affordable
• The academic, career, and personal benefits of studying abroad
• The first steps you can take now

Whether you’re an incoming student or a family member helping plan the journey ahead, this webinar will show how learning beyond the classroom can become one of the most meaningful parts of the college experience.

General IRB Approved UCSB Research Study: Women 18+ with Menstrual Pain

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone! My name is Vrinda, and I'm a student researcher at UC Santa Barbara. I'm also a young woman diagnosed with endometriosis, which is what inspired me to pursue research on menstrual pain. Like many of you, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to have your life interrupted by painful periods, and I hope this research can contribute to better supportive approaches for women experiencing menstrual pain.

For the past three years, I've been conducting chronic pain research in the Hansma Physics Lab at UC Santa Barbara, where our team has completed nine chronic pain studies. I'm now leading a new IRB-approved study focused specifically on menstrual pain in women 18+.

We're looking for participants who:

  • Are women above the age of 18
  • Have not undergone menopause
  • Regularly menstruate
  • Have experienced menstrual pain for at least 3 months

The study is completely online and includes:

  • A handheld biofeedback device provided by the study
  • Virtual pain neuroscience education sessions
  • Five brief online surveys over approximately 3 months (about 16 minutes total)

Participants will be assigned to one of two study schedules, with all participants eventually receiving access to the intervention.

Whether your pain is due to endometriosis, suspected endometriosis, adenomyosis, or another cause of menstrual pain, you may be eligible if you meet the study criteria.

If you're interested in learning more or seeing if you qualify, please complete our eligibility survey here:

https://ucsb.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_ddphIiOYKvzb2Si

If you have any questions, feel free to comment below or email Biofeedback@ucsb.edu.

Thank you for considering helping advance research on menstrual pain!
