健康与运动科学哲学博士

由于分配给疾病治疗而不是预防和支持治疗的资金比例过大，公共卫生保健系统当前承受着巨大压力。随着医疗保健提供者试图满足不断增长的人口的需求，寿命更长的人经常患有慢性疾病。如今，我们比以往任何时候都需要健康科学研究者来应对社会中一些最重大的健康挑战。健康与运动科学博士学位提供了一个令人兴奋的学术环境，您可以在其中获得有关健康科学研究的特定领域知识的知识，包括细胞和系统生理，干预和康复以及人口健康。在杰出的教职员工的指导下，您将成为一个队列的一部分，该队列将加强运动疗法，分子生物学，神经病学，营养学和行为医学等
The PhD in Health and Exercise Science expands your knowledge of specific areas of health sciences research, including cellular and systems physiology, intervention and rehabilitation and population health. Under the guidance of our faculty you will study the links between specialized sciences such as athletic therapy, molecular biology, neurology, nutrition and behavioural medicine. The program has a focus on prevention and supportive care. You will have access to Concordia's School of Health and its unique, multiplex facilities. The School of Health provides an exceptional environment for health research that combines a variety of methodologies under one roof. Current research topics include motion analysis, cardiopulmonary testing, clinical imaging, biological sample analyses and socioenvironmental diagnoses. Our researchers have access to a number of university-led research centres, such as the Centre for Structural and Functional Genomics, the Centre for Research in Human Development, and the Centre for Studies in Behavioural Neurobiology, as well as many offsite research units.
