Vision
The mission of the Respiratory and Integrative Physiology Laboratory (RIPL) is to better understand integrative human physiology with an emphasis on the respiratory system and the oxygen transport cascade.
Our research aims to identify steps along the oxygen transport cascade that contribute to exercise limitation and developing novel strategies to overcome these limitations. The lab employs an integrative approach to physiology that assesses the interaction of multiple organ systems during physiologically relevant stressors, such as exercise.
