Research labs

Behavioural Medicine (BMED) is a research lab within the School of Exercise Science, Physical and Health Education. Their mission is to produce and disseminate innovative and population-relevant physical activity and health research of the highest calibre within an environment that fosters collaboration, community, pride, and life balance.

The Digital Health Lab is a research lab within the School of Exercise Science, Physical and Health Education. The mission of the lab is to leverage innovative digital communication technology (e.g. Internet, mobile phones, social media) to promote physical activity, prevent chronic disease, and improve people’s health and well-being.

The principal focus of Neuroeconomics Laboratory is the study of neuroeconomics (an integration of the principles of neuroscience, psychology, and economic theory). The lab uses neuroimaging techniques such as electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging in conjunction with computational modelling to improve our understanding of the neural processes and computations that underlie human learning and decision making.

The main focus of the Rehabilitation Neuroscience Laboratory is to develop, disseminate, and apply knowledge of basic and clinical neuroscience to rehabilitation of limb movement after neurotrauma. All projects are designed to answer both basic research questions and also to lead into applied studies with rehabilitative applications in different pathologies.

The purpose of the TIE Lab is to strengthen research excellence regarding the appropriate use of networked and computer‐mediated technologies for enhanced communication, learning, and motivation across educational, professional, and health sectors. The TIE lab provides state‐of‐the‐art Infrastructure for systematically researching optimal e‐learning conditions, tools, processes and products.
