Congrats to @ame_debray for leading this one: Sex-related differences in temperature regulation during heat stress f... sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Absolute pleasure to collaborate with @EnviroPhys and @ollie_jay13 on this one: The Physiology Behind the Epidemiology of Heat-Related Health Impacts | Physiology | American Physiological Society journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.115…

Please share: Postdoc position available for 3 years to help determine indoor heat thresholds. Looking for a candidate with data science training. Contact me for more information.

Why is extreme heat associated with greater cardiovascular risk? Read @TemperatureEB by @IntegrPhysLab ⬇️ tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Only 1 week left to apply!!! Deadline is this Sunday 11:59PM EST.

Please share: we will be hosting a first-of-its-kind Global School on Heat Adaptation in Montreal, July 21-25, 2025. We are seeking current master's and PhD students to participate in the school. Deadline to apply is December 1st. All info below.

I have a fully-funded PhD scholarship ($40k per annum for 3.5 years) to work on a NHMRC funded project in the Heat and Health Research Center @HeatHealth_USYD looking at ways to sleep in hot overnight conditions. Please apply here: sydney.edu.au/scholarships/c…

@JoshFoster_PhD @ZachMcKenna_PhD Great stuff, congrats!

@shademap @AnnalsofIM And you are right that it probably increases much more with exercise!

@shademap @AnnalsofIM In and of itself, no. It depends on the capacity of the blood vessels to accommodate the greater blood flow demand. If the arteries can dilate sufficiently, not a problem. If they can’t, then potentially it could lead to ischemia.

Arguably our lab’s biggest publication, however that is defined! We show that heat exposure: 1) nearly doubles myocardial blood flow and 2) can cause myocardial ischemia in adults with coronary artery disease. @AnnalsofIM: acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M2…
