William F. Brechue, Ph.D has been a faculty member in the Department of Kinesiology and Health Studies at the University of Central Oklahoma (2006), the Department of Kinesiology at Indiana University (1995-2002) and at the University of Florida College of Medicine in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics (1987-1993) and Department of Medicine (1993-1995). Additionally he has taught grade school/high school mathematics and physical education. Dr. Brechue has also served as an athletics coach at the high school and university level, most recently at Central Missouri State University where he was a defensive line coach and the strength and conditioning coordinator for the football team (2002-2006) and is a regional coach with USA Weightlifting (1997-present).

Organ systems physiology, primarily neuromuscular and cardiovascular physiology and metabolic regulation. Present studies include Neuromuscular and cognitive aspects of traumatic brain injury and Foot-ankle mechanics and gait. Additional work includes physiological factors that dictate athletic performance and response to training and exercise prescription for health and rehabilitation. |
