康复科学哲学博士-临床运动与应用生理学

乔治·梅森大学（George Mason University）的康复科学博士课程吸引学生发展成为从临床到转化研究的各种领域的科学家。通过积极参与自己的研究计划，我们在国内外获得认可的教师导师。除了专门研究自己选择的主题外，学生还对康复科学领域有了广泛的了解。毕业后，我们的学生将准备在学术，临床，政府和行业研究环境中从事专业职业，并拥有开发自己的康复科学研究工具的工具，该专业专注于活体组织能量转化的研究。这包括描述和测量代谢，呼吸，循环和肺部相互作用，这对于维持生命和提供参与体育活动所需的能量是必不可少的
The PhD in rehabilitation science program at George Mason University engages students to develop as scientists across the spectrum of clinical to translational research. Our nationally and internationally recognized faculty mentor students through active involvement in their own research programs. Students develop a broad understanding of the field of rehabilitation science in addition to specializing in a topic of their choice. Upon graduation, our students are prepared for professional careers in academic, clinical, government, and industry research environments with the tools to develop their own lines of research in rehabilitation science.This specialization focuses on the study of energy transformation in living tissue. This includes describing and measuring metabolic, respiratory, circulatory, and pulmonary interactions, which are necessary for sustaining life and supplying the energy required for participating in physical activity. A detailed understanding of the regulatory systems, such as the muscular, nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, is also essential. Chronic illnesses often disrupt biological processes, or their regulation, thereby limiting participation and often shortening life expectancy. Students in this area conduct research aimed at understanding the mechanisms, consequences, and reversal of physiological impairments that impede the provision and utilization of energy, essential to every aspect of life.
