Baromedicine and environmental physiology

The Applied Physiology Research group at NTNU is part of the Medical Faculty's Department for Circulation and Medical Imagining (ISB). Our offices and laboratory facilities are located in the "Akutten og Hjerte-lunge-senteret" (AHL) building complex at St. Olavs University Hospital and at the NTNU Animal Department.

Our activities are centred around mechanisms and responses involved in the pathophysiology of diving and other activities that challenge the body's intrinsic potential for adaptation, and of how preventive measures such as exercise, hyperbaric oxygen pre-breathing or medical interventions may ameliorate the negative effects of diving and decompression stress. Our research projects involve human field- and laboratory studies as well as translative approaches involving animal models.

We teach and tutor higher-grade students in medicine, technology and natural sciences from several faculties at NTNU, and also welcome foreign students. The Applied Physiology Research group is engaged in extensive international collaborations.
