运动机能学博士-运动生理学

运动生理学是研究与体育活动对人类生理系统和健康的急性和慢性影响有关的问题，以及人类能量学和力学的基本概念如何应用于运动，运动，体育锻炼和健康促进。学生检查身体活动和锻炼在促进最佳健康/保健以及预防和管理心血管疾病，糖尿病，肥胖症，骨质疏松症和其他常见医学状况中的作用。研究生学习运用生理学原理来解决与人体骨骼肌活动涉及的功能性反应和适应有关的问题。学生将在Donald Dengel教授的指导下的人体综合生理学实验室和人体表现教学实验室，Li Li Ji教授的生理卫生与运动科学实验室以及骨骼肌肉可塑性与再生实
Exercise Physiology is the study of issues related to acute and chronic effects of physical activity on human physiological systems and health, and how fundamental concepts of human energetics and mechanics apply to exercise, sport, physical exertion, and health promotion. Students examine the role of physical activity and exercise in promoting optimal health/wellness and preventing and managing cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, obesity, osteoporosis, and other common medical conditions. Graduate students learn to apply principles of physiology to solving problems related to functional responses and adaptations involved in human skeletal muscular activity. Students gain laboratory experience in the Laboratory of Integrative Human Physiology and the Human Performance Teaching Laboratory, directed by Professor Donald Dengel, the Laboratory of Physiological Hygiene and Exercise Science directed by Professor Li Li Ji, and the Skeletal Muscle Plasticity and Regeneration Laboratory, directed by Dr. Sarah Greising. This emphasis area has strong interdisciplinary ties with many academic programs across campus, including medicine, nursing, physical therapy, public health, epidemiology, physiology, nutrition, and psychology.
