Description
This subject follows on from the preceding subject, "Physiology and Biochemistry of Sport and Exercise" and will extend the integrative understanding of the physiological, biochemical and molecular factors both regulating and responding to, exercise, training and specific environmental conditions. Special emphasis will be directed to consideration of iron metabolism, immune function, signal transduction, and the role of genotype and gene expression in the regulation of human phenotype in response to exercise-related stimuli and environmental stressors.
Subject details
Learning outcomes
- Describe and apply the physiological, biochemical and molecular processes mediating the acute and chronic response to exercise in varied environments.
- Plan and conduct an exercise and sports science based project using effective research strategies.
- Communicate effectively in both verbal and written contexts.
- Critically evaluate current issues in physiology and molecular biology of exercise using effective problem-solving.
- Apply the principles and theories relevant to exercise and sports science laboratory skills and techniques.
