As a member of the Clinical & Translational Science Institute (CTSI), the Human Performance Assessment Core (HPAC) is a Translational Research Unit (TRU) for exercise physiology testing. This will streamline contracting the HPAC. Services are available to both university and private research investigators. The HPAC collaborates with various university departments including Nursing, Engineering, Psychology and Biology.

The HPAC can assist in all phases of research in the following ways:

• Determine appropriate testing for the population
• Design flowsheets or data forms
• Assist with appropriate IRB training for team members
• Train personnel on equipment use
• Data collection
• Quality assurance
• Schedule of spaces or equipment
• Email Toni Uhrich to set up an initial appointment.
