The HPL utilizes advanced techniques to assess human movement as it relates to exercise, sport performance, and rehabilitation. The data collected from these assessments drive undergraduate and graduate student research, and provide hands-on learning experiences that apply to a variety of health and clinical professions. Listed below is the equipment used in the laboratory.
