I am recruiting a postdoc and possibly a PhD student to lead a new series of studies in my lab related to occupational health and safety in the heat. Experience with environmental chamber studies would be a plus but not necessary.
After many years of hard work, I am pleased to see this paper published in @BJSM_BMJ. A collaborative study between @HeatHealth_USYD and @UC_RISE.
Open access paper availabe here:

This video is part of the @HeatHealth_USYD’s contribution to the Powerhouse “50°C: Climate, Heat and Resilience“ initiative.
I provide an overview of the issues we face in a warming climate, and the research we are conducting @Sydney_Uni to increase community resilience to heat.
Congratulations to @nethangie for successfully completing your PhD. It was a pleasure supervising you with @DrYorgiMavros and great to celebrate at a fantastic Sri Lankan restaurant!
We have a number of exciting opportunities at the @HeatHealth_USYD, University of Sydney.
We are looking for a #PhD student and a #postdoctoral research associate to look at the effects of simple cooling solutions to improve #sleep in hot overnight conditions.

The impact of air speed and direction on metabolic rate and skin temperature. Why running indoors on a treadmill misses important energetic and thermophysiological effects when no relevant air speed is applied. Now available in its final version.

In a world-first experiment, researchers at @HeatHealth_USYD are testing how much heat the human body can endure.
As the planet warms, understanding these deadly thresholds has never been more crucial.

That's a wrap. Fabulous week in Phoenix @ASUGlobalFuture to share best practices, local challenges, community efforts, & #collaborative research on all things #heat, #health, & #adaptation. Temps were high, goals were set, and fun was had by all. Thanks to @HeatReadyPHX + others!
Great to present alongside @NikkiTheresa@JenniVanos and @nickravanelli today at @ASU on all things heat-health related. Also thoroughly enjoyed a workshop on effective public health messaging!
Great to share low-cost and sustainable alternatives to air-conditioning with primary school children (aged 7 to 11) from across NSW today! The ice towels were a fan favourite, closely followed by self-dousing! Always a pleasure disseminating the work of @HeatHealth_USYD.
At @HeatHealth_USYD, @ollie_jay13's team is using a state-of-the-art climate chamber to investigate the conditions under which heat threatens life, and the best ways to stay cool and safe.
