Laboratories Not Accepting Graduate Students
- Applied Exercise Science - Dr. Bill Byrnes is retired, and the laboratory is not accepting new graduate students. Dr. Sewan (Peter) Kim oversees current research in this laboratory.
- Sleep and Development - Dr. Monique LeBourgeois passed away unexpectedly in fall 2023, so there are no new opportunities for graduate study in this laboratory. Please direct any questions regarding her research to 303-735-4640 or 303-492-7333.
- Sleep and Inflammation - Dr. Mark Opp is not accepting new graduate students.
Participating in Research
- Undergraduate students can participate in several ways, from becoming a subject (see below) to conducting research with or without academic credit. Consult the laboratory links above to find out the specific requirements for becoming an undergraduate researcher in each lab. See the undergraduate research page for more information about your academic options for getting involved with research.
- Volunteer research subjects are recruited from the general population as specific needs arise in studies of human subjects. Opportunities to become a research subject may be posted on the laboratory web pages; those that have used human subjects include: Diabetes and Obesity Research, Integrative Physiology of Aging, Integrative Vascular Biology, Neurophysiology of Movement, Sleep and Chronobiology, and Sleep and Development. Some opportunities are posted on the .
Facilities
- Several laboratories in Integrative Physiology work with the to facilitate studies using human subjects.
