Research infrastructure includes a temperature-, humidity-, and oxygen-controlled environmental chamber, a dual-belt instrumented treadmill, motion-capture system, metabolic carts, velotron cycle ergometers, near-infrared spectroscopy, electromyography, and blood sampling equipment.

Our current research program explores various factors related to exercise physiology. Specific research focuses of faculty include: temperature regulation, performance in extreme environments, regulation of cerebral blood flow, pulmonary oxygen uptake responses to exercise, and heart rate variability, with a specific focus on cycling and running.
