Academic Interests

I consider myself a Systemic Human Physiologist, the last of a dying breed! Specifically, I use exercise and environmental perturbations to explain physiological control systems in humans. Naturally, most of this research is quite applied in nature. Over the last 20 years I have published papers in the American Journal of Physiology, Journal of Applied Physiology, Journal of Thermal Biology, and Physical Therapy just to name a few.
