Each department within the School of Public Health and Health Professions has its own discipline-specific research facilities as well as access to shared resources.
The Center for Health Research (CHR) is a full-service research facility available to all School of Public Health and Health Professions faculty conducting externally funded studies.
The CHR includes:
CRESE is a unique facility where multiple, collaborative faculty utilize a central infrastructure to address issues in environmental physiology and prehospital medicine. The two main areas of focus are performance in extreme environments (altitude, depth, heat, cold) and prehospital and battlefield medicine. While the research conducted is broadly related to health, wellness, and performance of first responders and warfighters, many of the findings are applicable to the general population and athletes.
The Emergency Responder Human Performance Lab (ERHPL) is dedicated to promoting the health and safety of emergency responders through research, education and application. Lab researchers aim to understand the stresses associated with emergency response and develop appropriate interventions.
