Human Physiology Laboratories
Blood Pressure and Autonomic Reflexes
Investigate how autonomic nervous system responses affect blood pressure regulation.
30-45 minutesBlood Pressure and Exercise
Measure blood pressure changes during different intensities of physical activity.
30-45 minutesDiurnal Blood Pressure Variation
Track blood pressure changes throughout the day to study circadian rhythm effects.
30-45 minutesPulse Transit Time
Measure the time it takes for the pulse wave to travel between two arterial sites.
30-45 minutesEKG and Electrode Position
Investigate how different electrode placements affect electrocardiogram recordings.
30-45 minutesDiving Reflex
Study the mammalian diving reflex including bradycardia and peripheral vasoconstriction.
30-45 minutesLung Volumes and Capacities
Measure tidal volume, vital capacity, residual volume, and other pulmonary parameters.
30-45 minutesSpirometry and Body Position
Investigate how different body positions affect respiratory volumes and capacities.
30-45 minutesRespiratory Response to Physiologic Challenges
Study breathing responses to exercise, hyperventilation, and breath holding.
30-45 minutesAnalysis of Lung Function
Use spirometry data to assess lung health and diagnose potential respiratory issues.
30-45 minutesSimulating Asthma
Use breathing through narrow tubes to simulate airway constriction in asthma.
30-45 minutesAnalysis of Barefoot Running
