Physiology and Technology

IAHP uses technology to assess the behavioural and integrative physiological responses to better understand and improve human performance, health, and wellbeing. For example, we have recently developed apps and online platforms to enable remote but individualised exercise, diet and rehabilitation prescription, and monitoring. 

Our research facilities include cardiovascular, integrative physiology, EEG, exercise physiology laboratories (two with thermal and altitude-simulating environmental chambers), and a magnetic imaging suite with a 3 Tesla scanner hosted by the Bangor Imaging Unit.

We also use these facilities and our physiology expertise to help develop new technologies. This work is often completed with industry partners and has previously involved proof-of-concept and product testing and development. We also have experience developing digital methods to complete online and mobile monitoring.
