Happy Thursday, CHS Miners! ⛏️ Check out this reel featuring a collaborative learning session with Dr. Gurovich’s CAPh lab and Dr. Ibarra’s Bioergonomics lab! Dr. Daniel Conde and PhD student Angel Melendez led a VO2max training to better prepare researchers for current and upcoming studies. VO2max is a measurement of the maximum amount of oxygen a person can utilize during intense exercise, and it’s crucial for understanding cardiovascular fitness and endurance. This training was both effective and a good example of interdisciplinary learning.
