Background:
The Human Performance Laboratories (Australia) research group was formed in 2001, and combines the research experience and expertise from several research laboratories, focussing upon research in human and applied physiology:
Members of the Human Performance Laboratories (Australia) perform research across the spectrum of human physiology, including cardiovascular physiology, metabolic physiology and biochemistry, and muscle, respiratory and environmental physiology. In addition, contributing members participate in applied research, with a particular emphasis upon ergonomics and human factors.
