UAB Center for Exercise Medicine
The UAB Center for Exercise Medicine (UCEM) was established by the Board of Trustees of The University of Alabama on February 4, 2011. The center brings together more than 200 members and trainees, 36 departments, and 10 schools for a multi-disciplinary approach.
UCEM's overarching goal is to understand the biological mechanisms underlying exercise-induced adaptations and their clinical utility in disease treatment and prevention. The center's interventions are focused on optimizing exercise treatments for specific diseases using a dose-response approach. The center also serves as a resource for exercise medicine researchers ranging from undergraduates to senior scientists. It offers expertise and infrastructure for human or animal model research involving exercise intervention. Through its training and educational programs, and consultation services, UCEM aims to advance the field of exercise biology and medicine.
