Integrative Biology Laboratory

Far, far away, in a secret research facility hidden in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where the only sound that can be heard is the quiet clinking of test tubes and the rustling of white lab coats, you will find...

The Laboratory of Integrative Biology

Here the mysteries of autonomic regulation of energy expenditure are being slowly unraveled (but sometimes rapidly tangled).

You?ve seen the web page, now participate in a study...

We?re always seeking volunteers to participate in our research. Benefits most often include assessment of body composition via dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), measurement of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), determination of resting metabolic rate, and blood chemistry analysis. $$$ Financial compensation in return for participation is available for some protocols $$$
