Nice to chat with @retauber from @TheAthletic about how Extreme heat is disrupting athletic events worldwide. Is sports ready for the future?

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.

Great study from @Petermc8, @DrJPeriard and team investigating how heat acclimation protocols influence adaptation kinetics.

In our recent review we highlight the inter-individual variability in the heat acclimation phenotype.
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
We also highlight the inter-study variability in adaptations, in response to protocol characteristics (e.g. plasma volume).

@DrJPeriard @ameliajcarr @S_Warmington @RhiannonSnipe
Looking forward to talking about how to manage heat in different sports with this great panel!

Delighted to lead this new research project aiming to build resilience to climate change in our communities. I'm grateful to @nhmrc for this $1M investment in our work, and to our interdisciplinary research team and community partners! @HEALenviron @uc_hri @UniCanberra
More Australians will be affected by bushfire smoke & extreme heat due to climate change. New UC @HEALenviron GRC project funded by NHMRC will assess the ability of community resilience centres (Clean air shelters) to reduce harmful exposures to heat/smoke in Western Sydney & ACT
