(Code: ULB387)

The Laboratory research field evolves around the limitation factors of aerobic capacity. A particular interest is focused on the mechanisms of adaptation
of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems during exercise, in patients, healthy subjects, sedentary or trained and including in extreme conditions.
The
Laboratory's research projects are related to 3 main axes;
1) Pulmonary, systemic and cerebral hemodynamic limitation and adaptations during
exercise,
2) Adaptations and limitations of aerobic capacity in extreme conditions, including altitude.
3) Exercise therapy; feasability and impact of physical
activity and exercise in metabolic and cardio-respiratory patients
