Musculoskeletal Research Laboratory is a brand new 1200 sq-ft research facility located in the College of Health Sciences. This 5 story building will house the College of Health Sciences, the office of the senior vice president and chancellor of the University of Kentucky Medical Center, Centers for Nutritional Sciences and Aging. Tim L. Uhl PhD ATC PT serves as the Director of the Musculoskeletal laboratory. This facility will provide state of the art equipment to evaluate muscle performance, balance, and orthopaedic assessments. This lab will also be used to study rehabilitation approaches and techniques to evaluate their effectiveness.

 

Directions to the MSL:

The Biodynamics Lab is run by Robert Shapiro, PhD.  This lab provides three-dimensional motion analysis of human movement allowing for the assessment of kinematic (motion), kinetic (force), and electromyographic information.  This lab provides our graduates with valuable experience in evaluating human movement and gives students the opportunity to investigate specific movement disorders associated with athletic injuries.
