Genomics & Molecular Laboratories

A facility comprises a state-of-the-art genomics laboratory suite equipped with automated robotic systems, advanced sequencing technologies, and real-time analytical workflows, making it one of the world’s most advanced integrated genomics environments in sport science.

 

The work underway spans high-performance athlete genomics, anti-doping and drug detection, and analysis of unique and rare biological samples as well as research related to major sporting issues.

Biomechanics & Performance Lab

A facility which illustrates the athlete’s “performance matrix”, integrating biomechanics, physiology, and technology.

 

 

 

Advanced Body Composition (DEXA Suite)

A facility which illustrates the athlete’s “performance matrix”, integrating biomechanics, physiology, and technology.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Biobank (Global Resource Platform)

A unique and growing global resource platform housing over 3,000 biological samples from elite athletes and research cohorts worldwide, enabling longitudinal research across performance, health, and disease.

 

 

 

Environmental & Hypoxic Chamber

A highly specialised facility capable of simulating extreme conditions, including high altitude (low oxygen), heat, and cold.

 

A state‑of‑the‑art facility capable of running from –20°C to +50°C with independent humidity control. It also includes wind simulation and a solar‑radiation lamp in the ceiling, allowing us to recreate almost any environmental condition athletes might face. This enables us to test people or equipment safely before they travel to extreme environments.
