The Airwise & Exercise Physiology Research Laboratory (EPRL), established in 1993 to promote the discipline of exercise physiology in research, is housed in one of the world's most premier medical schools and provides a foundation for research and teaching exercise physiology to undergraduate, graduate, medical/dental students as well as postgraduate fellows. The EPRL is unique at UCLA in its focus on applied exercise physiology, serving as a community hub for translational research and a clinical resource for lifestyle-wellness-fitness interventions that emphasize evidence-based practices.The lab promotes a prevention model of wellness, focused on forestalling disease progression through the enhancement of health and fitness practices. Recently, the lab was distinguished as part of the Exercise is Medicine® on-campus recognition program through the American College of Sports Medicine, together whose vision is to create a campus culture that embraces physical activity and exercise as a daily facet of life and views it as essential for longterm health and wellness. Notable among the myriad of research topics conducted in the EPRL is our study and utilization of cutting-edge wearable fitness technologies that aim to improve the health and performance in those inflicted with a disease, fitness enthusiasts and athletes alike. The EPRL reflects a tripartite mission – research, education, and outreach—to advance the knowledge and practice of exercise physiology.UC Fit is the outreach arm of the EPRL. From ideation to research to program design and implementation, our multi-disciplinary team at UC Fit has a mission to bridge the gap between laboratory research and real-world application of health-fitness practices by leveraging Digital Health technology. UC Fit serves as a community hub for translational research and a clinical resource for lifestyle intervention that emphasize fitness education.
