Cardiopulmonary & Respiratory Physiology Lab

Laboratory Homepage

Welcome to the Cardiopulmonary & Respiratory Physiology Laboratory at the University of Oregon. We study the heart, lungs and breathing in various environmental extremes. Oxygen is critical for sustaining life and the entryway for oxygen into the human body is via the lungs. Our research program is focused on how blood flow through shunt pathways in the heart and lungs affects human physiology and pathophysiology in health and disease, respectively.

 

If you are interested in participating as a subject in one of our studies please contact 541-346-0831.


We are not currently accepting undergraduate research assistants but encourage those interested to apply in other labs here:
