For example, our Institute of Sport building houses human movement performance and muscle function testing laboratories, an environmental chamber and 3-T MRI scanner. These are complemented by facilities supporting cell and molecular biology, genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics and proteomics, all of which are supported by specialist technical teams.
Our scientists have strong collaborative relationships with colleagues who are experts in allied disciplines such as data science and engineering, including use of engineering principles to improve prosthetics to treat facial injury/disfigurement and data science approaches to improve measurement of muscle health, predict sports-related injury risk or diabetes-related risk of developing foot ulcers.
