Dr. Paul McDonough, Associate Professor, Department of Kinesiology, is a recipient of the Wiederhelm award, presented by the Microcirculatory Society at Experimental Biology 2009. The award was presented for Dr. McDonough’s 2004 journal publication “Measurement of muscle microvascular oxygen pressures: Compartmentalization of phosphorescent probe.” The Wiederhelm award recognizes original research published in Microcirculation that has received the most citations during the last 5 years.

Exercise Science Research Laboratories (ESRL)The ESRL opened in 2003 with 10 laboratories in 10,000 square feet of space. The 10 laboratories include two cardiopulmonary labs and one each of neuromuscular, metabolism, cardiovascular, biomechanics, chemistry, body composition, athletic training education program, and computer. The equipment in the ESRL includes numerous treadmills, bicycle ergometers, metabolic carts, electrocardiographs, hydrostatic weighing, biodex, force plate, electromyography, cinematography, lactate and blood chemistry analyzers.
