Latest short paper from HEPRU uOttawa Sean Notley: During incremental exercise-heat stress (hot-dry conditions), controlled and uncomplicated hypertension is unlikely to exert a meaningful effect on whole-body heat loss in physically-active individuals rdcu.be/b8yKU

Chris becomes first person with Down Syndrome to complete Ironman Triathlon! Chris Nikic has really proven the Ironman slogan, ‘Anything is Possible’ as he has become the first person with Down Syndrome to complete the infamous challenge. whycantwe.co.uk/chris-nikic #whycantwe

Great to see these data out there 👏 Nathalie Kirby and team

Mean increase of 8% in VO2max after 3 weeks of post-exercise sauna bathing. Great work from Nathalie Kirby 👏👏👏

🚨New Review🚨 Sex differences in the physiological adaptations to heat acclimation - sex-dependent (e.g. anthropometric, menstrual cycle) - sex-independent factors (e.g. environmental conditions, fitness) both influencing the physiological & performance adaptations Link ⬇️

Congrats Nathalie Kirby and the team! 🙌🏼 Fantastic work!!🏃🏼‍♂️🔥

Tons of our research is done by our amazing PhD students and postdocs researchers. On #InternationalWomensDay let’s celebrate them, including Dr Grace Tidmarsh Viv YJ Lee Dr Sandra Agyapong-Badu Nathalie Kirby Others in the school - tag yourself in the replies & tell us what you research!

Nathalie Kirby, PhD Absolutely stoked to have successfully defended my thesis. Thanks to my examiners for a viva that felt much more like a science chat than than an exam, and to my supervisors and all of UBSportExR for their immense support over the years. Cheers! 🥂 #PhDone

You don't want to miss our CBF virtual seminar of April 8th! In a point-counterpoint discussion, Ryan Hoiland, @SamLucas_PhD and Karen Mullinger will chat about the following hot topic: Cerebral Vascular Reactivity...What are we measuring? To register: bit.ly/2P4k47R

“The science helping athletes to beat the heat” A recent piece in Nature Outlook where we discuss some of the heat alleviation strategies for athletes ahead of #Tokyo2020. A clear focus on individualising interventions around each athlete.

Great pleasure to join Jessica and share some thoughts on the current state of understanding regarding sex differences in heat adaptation. Still plenty for us to figure out in this regard.

Looking forward to presenting my MSc by Research study proposal to our C-CEP PGR research group on Wednesday!! “BDNF, Exercise & the Menstrual Cycle” 🧠🧠🧠 LES_Postgraduate_Researchers UoB EnviroPhys
