Center for Health Promotion, Performance, and Rehabilitation Research

Center for Health Promotion, Performance, and Rehabilitation Research (CHPPRR) supports a collaborative community of scientists and clinicians at UTMB dedicated to the advancement of health promotion, performance, and rehabilitation research.

The Center is committed to creating relationships among basic, clinical, and translational scientists to apply research findings for the benefit of persons with disability, health inequities, and chronic disease across the lifespan and their families, caregivers, and communities.

CHPPRR was established in 2022 to meet the growing need of the UTMB research community in health promotion, performance, and rehabilitation research. Our core research areas are Health Across the Lifespan, Learning Health Systems & Health Services Research, Patient-Centered Health & Community Outcomes, Health Promotion, and Neuromotor Control & Performance.

CHPPRR researchers, faculty, and residents received training on the use of the center’s new Biodex System 4 Dynamometer in April. The addition of this resource to CHPPRR will allow researchers to evaluate strength, endurance, power and range of motion of all major joints and muscles and collect highly detailed objective data.
