Dr. Rossiter's research mission is to improve the lives of patients in whom exercise intolerance is a major symptom. For this he uses a range of in situ, in vivo, and in silico approaches, with special reference to the dynamic integration of physiological systems in oxygen transport and utilization. His lab forms part of the Rehabilitation Clinical Trials Center at LA BioMed, which conducts respiratory research and clinical trials focusing on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. As the Director of Research Training in the Rehabilitation Clinical Trials Center, he is responsible for postgraduate, postdoctoral, and physician training in clinical and translational respiratory research. The center typically supports about 5 research trainees at any one time. Dr. Rossiter is a Fellow of The American College of Sports Medicine, a member of the Animal Sciences study section of the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (UK), and acts on the editorial boards of the Frontiers in Physiology, the European Journal of Applied Physiology, and the Journal of Applied Physiology.
