Expertise

Subject Areas:

  • Exercise Science.

Research Interests:

  • Human cardiovascular, metabolic, and thermoregulatory responses to exercise and physical activity in hot ambient conditions
  • Physical/work performance optimization in environmentally-stressful conditions
  • Influence of hydration on cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses to exercise and physical activity
  • Heat stress/acclimation responses in special populations
  • Mechanisms of sweating and control of skin blood flow during whole-body and local skin heating in humans

His research focuses on performance optimization along with human cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses during exercise in hot ambient conditions. He is also interested in mechanisms of sweating and control of skin blood flow.
