Congratulations to the former doctoral researcher Dr Gavin Travers (@Gav_physiol) for his 2nd place at the 2021 Gatorade Sport Science Institute (GSSI) Nutrition Awards. @E_C_S_S#ecss2021
Well done to Dr Pascale Kippelen for chairing and presenting in the live, invited symposium entitled ‘Impact of hyperthermia and dehydration on pulmonary function and the respiratory response to exercise’ at @E_C_S_S#ECSS2021 this morning.
Findings from a new Brunel study by @NunoKochEsteves et al., suggest that local limb hyperthermia is regulated at the level of the microcirculation via thermosensitive mechanisms
