Introduction to Animal Respirometry Course

Our respirometry course teaches participants how to use indirect calorimetry. We will apply techniques for measuring real‐time O2 consumption, CO2 production, and water loss for subjects ranging from small invertebrates to large mammals. Participants will work on both single animal and multiplexed systems in both open‐flow and stop‐flow configurations. Data analysis is a significant focus of this course – so feel free to bring your own data sets.
