Exercise Science
Research
The Faculty in Exercise Science are published widely in peer-reviewed national and international journals and are also active in writing books and book chapters. Listed below are some current research studies and selected publications.
An optic fiber (left) is inerted into the patellar tendon for assessment of knee joint kinetics. This technique is currentlybeing used in the Neuromuscular Laboratory to investigate the function of the knee in squatting and knee extensions.
